Consent Document Assignment O Case Study: Sleeping Sickness Study on Campus Now that your colleague studying sleeping sickness has decided on the method of recruitment for the study participants, she must write an informed consent document for the participants to sign. The researcher has prepared two different draft consent documents and must select one to submit to her IRB for review. Read the two consent documents provided in a separate word file and then choose the document that best informs the potential participants about the study in which they will enroll: Respect for Persons Consent Document 1 Surface Antigen Expression in Trypanosomes Dr. X You are invited to participate in this study by giving blood on a voluntary basis, but no more than five times in an eight week period. The research project is anticipated to continue for four years. All blood draws will be performed by qualified technicians at the Medical Center Blood Bank. 100 ml of blood will be withdrawn from a vein in your arm. Although you will not benefit directly from participating in this study, you will make a major contribution to the information known about trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness. In the future, others may benefit because scientists and doctors will learn about how parasites cause sleeping sickness, and will develop vaccines to prevent it. You will be paid $5 for the time and travel required to give blood.

Focus Styles Editing Respect for Persons Consent Document 2 Surface Antigen Expression in Trypanosomes Dr. X Dr. X's laboratory studies the parasite which causes trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness. This study will look at the effects of different surface antigens (proteins) produced by the parasites in human blood. The goal is to identify how different surface antigens are expressed by the parasites. You are invited to participate in this study by giving blood on a voluntary basis, but no more than five times in an eight week period. The research project is anticipated to continue for four years. All blood draws will be performed by qualified technicians at the Medical Center Blood Bank. 100 ml of blood will be withdrawn from a vein in your arm. None of the procedures are experimental. During the collection of blood, you may experience discomfort and bruising at the site of collection. To minimize these risks, you will be asked to lie down while an experienced technician collects the blood sample. You may feel light-headed after having blood drawn. If you feel faint, you should not get up and should notify a nurse.
