Abstract
You must have an IRB approval to do clinical research, even if it consist of something as simple and risk-free as noninvasively taking the patient’s pulse. Although a study which consists of just taking the patient’s pulse is not considered a risk to the subject, informed consent is required. If you are unsure of whether you need informed consent, always contact your local IRB.
The most important part of the IRB submission is the informed consent.
