CONSULT Training for Trials Researchers Webinar
05/12/2024 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Addressing the ‘black box of horrendousness’: supporting researchers to conduct trials involving adults lacking capacity to consent – 5th December 2-3pm
Trials involving adults with impaired capacity to consent can be challenging to conduct, resulting in this underserved group often being excluded, or trials that do include them being difficult to implement. Building on the NIHR INCLUDE Impaired Capacity to Consent Framework and CONSULT website of resources for researchers, we have developed the CONSULT e-learning course to support researchers to design and conduct trials involving this population.
The e-learning was developed by a team of researchers from the Centre for Trials Research at Cardiff University in collaboration with interdisciplinary researchers with expertise in this topic and a lay advisory group. It is aimed at researchers who are interested in learning more about the topic, and those who already have experience in this area.
At this webinar we will discuss the importance of inclusivity in trials with a focus on populations with impaired capacity to consent and introduce the CONSULT e-learning course outlining how it can help support researchers to design and conduct trials involving adults with impaired capacity to consent.
This will be followed by a live Q&A with our expert panel on the topic of ‘What are the key challenges when conducting research with adults with impaired capacity to consent and how can we address these?’ Attendees are invited to submit questions ahead of the webinar or during the event.
