Healthcare Research Ethics and Law Regulation, Review and Responsibility By: Hazel Biggs Publisher: Routledge-Cavendish Print ISBN: 9781904385486, 1904385486 eText ISBN: 9781135309275, 1135309272 Edition: 1st Pages: 208 Copyright year: 2010 Format: EPUB Available from $ 28.38 USD SKU 9781135309275R90 The book explores and explains the relationship between law and ethics in the context of medically related research in order to provide a practical guide to understanding for members of research ethics committees (RECs), professionals involved with medical research and those with an academic interest in the subject. Healthcare Research Ethics and Law sets out the law as it relates to the functions of Research Ethics Committees (RECs) within the context of the process of ethical review and aims to be accessible and readily understood by REC members. Each chapter begins by locating the material within the practical context of ethical review and then provides a more theoretical and analytical discussion detailing how the theory and practice fit together. The key legal issues of confidentiality, consent and negligence are addressed in detail, alongside practical guidance as to how and when liability may be incurred in these areas. In addition, the practical and legal implications of the implementation of European Directive 2001/20/EC, the Human Tissue Act 2004 and the Mental Capacity Act 2005 are considered alongside a discussion of their socio-political background and relevance for medical research in the UK.
