Do you need to use clinic equipment as part of your research? If so, for security reasons, we must document access to the equipment, provide unique user identifications and passwords, and give a short training on proper equipment use. Whether you already have access to the equipment as a clinician or not, there is an easy procedure to follow to request permission to use clinic equipment under an IRB-approved research protocol. The new procedure mirrors the procedure to request access to Compulink for research. In addition to this procedure, researchers are reminded that use of the equipment for research is superseded by its use for clinic. If you need to see subjects during clinic hours, call Deanna Hecoax (2-1445) first. The procedure is outlined in a document (“Procedure – research access to clinic special testing equipment”) saved in the Research folder on the I drive. Contact Greg Nixon with questions.
