WHO WE ARE
The eClinical Forum is a global network of peers. It provides a non‐competitive environment for innovation, learning and collaboration in clinical research.
The EUCROF and eClinical Forum Electronic Informed Consent (eConsent) Joint Task Force are pleased to announce the publication of the eConsent Implementation Guide (version 1). The joint task force was formed in 2019 with a view to look at some of the barriers to adoption of eConsent considering the benefits to stakeholders. eConsent offers remote electronic options for informing and consenting trial participants of a clinical trial, this being a particularly useful capability especially during the pandemic period when site visits are reduced.
The eConsent Implementation Guide provides an overview and practical considerations when implementing eConsent within a clinical trial.
The eConsent Implementation Guide includes:
The eConsent Task Force team also acts as a go to group for specific questions when considering implementing eConsent.
We’d like to thank EUCROF and eClinical Forum contributors for their invaluable support in the development of this document.
