The Use of Electronic Consent (eConsent) Within the Ketamine for Long-Lasting Pain Relief After Surgery (KALPAS) Multicenter Trial by Doan LV, Burr J, Perez R, Martinez H, Cuevas R, Watt K, Wang J

“…When signing the eConsent, however, all potential participants are provided with a concise summary of the informed consent document, an approach not widely used by multicenter studies. eConsent has been noted to be beneficial to research staff when trying to gather informed consent from participants who live far away from the hospital, want to include their family and friends, and for researchers who can approach patients outside of their clinical appointments.Conclusion: The ability to consent patients remotely has allowed for a flexible workflow within sites and a more patient-centric process that focuses on including loved ones in the discussion and scheduling time to speak to a principal investigator. Demand for eConsent will likely continue in the post-COVID era, and use of a concise summary can allow for a more efficient consenting process.Keywords: electronic consent, clinical trials, informed consent, concise summary…”
