Abstract:
Objective:To discuss the necessity and possible difficulties faced in the implementation of commissioned ethics review in China, propose preliminary operational suggestions for the implementation of ethical review.Methods:Systematically review the relevant provisions on commissioned ethics review. Analyze possible problems and related reasons in the implementation of commissioned ethics review, taking into account the current status of entrusted review and the author's practical experience.Results:The commissioned ethics review is an important supplement to the ethical review system, however, there may be many difficulties, such as unclear ″indications″ and operating procedures, unclear standards and paths for the commissioned ethics committees, unclear responsibilities for ethical review, and low level of enthusiasm for the entrusted review.Conclusions:Commissioned ethics review is a strategy worth exploring. Refining the guidelines for commissioned ethics review, exploiting regional advantages of ethical resources, strengthening the capacity building of ethics committees, promoting the evaluation of the ethics committees, establishing an ethics review network with complementary advantages, building information systems, and constructing governance systems are important foundations for promoting the smooth implementation of entrusted review.
