This action allows the IRB Administrators to assign the protocol to a committee and schedule and to change the protocol submission review type.
The assign to committee and/or schedule action makes the protocol eligible to be reviewed by IRB committee members through a full board or expedited or exempt review. The committee/schedule selection serves as a precursor to make many other actions available.
In addition the “Modify Submission Request” action allows the IRB Administrator to change the review type. The investigator may set the review type during initial protocol submission.
The system will present pre-defined checklists for Expedited and Exempt reviews if the review type is Expedited or Exempt.
