Discuss the ethical guidelines that would need to be implemented when conducting translational research.
Ethical guidelines are essential to translational research because they establish the validity of the study. Guidelines such as those issued by the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS) should also be implemented when conducting translational research. CIOMS guidelines significant to translational research include guideline 4: potential individual benefits and risks of research; Guideline 5: choice of control in clinical trials and Guideline 6: Caring for participant’s health needs (Daverio, 2019).
Guideline 4 is central to translational research because this study aims to gain new scientific knowledge while ensuring the safety of the research participants (Daverio, 2019). Guideline 5 is relevant for translational research because this research involves patients in testing new therapies or drugs (Daverio, 2019). A Control group is needed for this purpose. Guideline 6 requires researchers and sponsors to carefully address care for research participants (Daverio, 2019). That is why it should be implemented for translational research.
