STUDENT #1 : The course, Ethics and Human Subject Protections was informative. It gives an accurate definition of ethics, explains ethics in clinical research, describes the historical evolution in clinical research, such as the Tuskegee experiment on syphilis that was done on African American males was closed after almost 50 years of experiment. Also, presents The Nuremberg Code was created due to Nazi researchers conducting brutal experiments on concentration camp captives, including men, women, and children. These are good examples of why medical research should follow the ethics guideline. Moreover, the course set a clear guideline for medical researchers the primary concern of clinical research should be protecting the participants from any harm.
My workplace is WakeMed Hospital in Cary, North Carolina. WakeMed participates in clinical research on medications, medical devices, biological products for human use, and electronic products. Patients involved in research are given information to decide to participate or not to participate; they are also informed that refusal to participate in a study will not limit their access to care, treatment, or services. WakeMed has an IRB (Institutional Review Board). The IRB is a multidisciplinary committee that evaluates all requests for studies involving patients. Consent forms are required to be signed by the patient prior to participating in a research study. The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) oversee research studies to assure the safety of volunteers. WakeMed physician investigators who lead involvement in studies are trained in industry-standard Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and can provide detailed information on the study’s benefits and dangers. In most cases, participants are paid a small fee and reimbursed for travel expenses. Any medical exams, ongoing assessments, and drugs/medical devices will be supplied at no cost to the participant. However, each study is different and will be explained to the participants in detail before signing up for the study.

Before the ethics course, I did not realize that there was that much history pertaining to ethics. I have always been aware of ethics, however, after participating in the course, I became more intrigued about how and why ethics became so important in clinical research. This course is extremely informative with many examples.
I work for Memorial Health University Medical Center in Savannah, Ga. MHUMC and Mercer University work together, conducting research in the proper fashion. MHUMC has a designated IRB, in which they must meet the requirements of Mercer University’s Federal Wide Assurance for human subject protections with the Office of Human Research Protections at the Department of Health and Human Services. The IRB at Memorial must follow written procedures when they report findings and actions with Mercer’s IRB (Memorial Health University Medical Center, n.d.).
They also have a team of healthcare professionals, which forms their ethics committee. They discuss and review proposals as they come at Memorial. The committee consists of the Director of Ethics, Ethics and Compliance Specialists, and several others. They provide the hospital with the utmost professional, genuine, but also non-biased feedback.
