Informed consent

All research conducted on humans must be pre-emptively accepted by the subjects themselves through the procedure known as informed consent, which is a process by which “a subject voluntarily confirms his or her willingness to participate in a particular trial, after having been informed of all aspects of the trial that are relevant to the subject’s decision to participate”, as stated in the International Council for Harmonisation Good Clinical Practice guidelines.

PKB is following these guidelines and allows the patients to give their consent to other teams to access their data for research or provide their procedure via PKB's care plan.
