Design issues in e-consent.
Informed consent has not been implemented as a relationship, but instead as a single-point transaction that must be completed in order to enroll participants. This paper discusses e-consent and notes that it is an opportunity to: truly inform research participants about clinical protocols; provide a meaningful choice architecture to support a potential participant’s decision making about whether or not to enroll; and serve as the beginning of an ongoing ethical relationship with study participants.

They stated that recognition of the complex set of considerations that should inform decision-making will guide gatekeepers in making justifiable choices regarding the use of limited and valuable resources.
