University of Iowa Protocols: Disaster Response Research Project
Source: University of Iowa (UI)Date Published: 4/21/2016Format: TextAnnotation: The University of Iowa's IRB protocol's intent is to establish an umbrella IRB approval for rapid response research in the event of disasters, including floods, fires, earthquakes or chemical spills. The IRB application is created in such a way as to be easily modifiable to fit the needs of the specific organization or disaster that it is being used in response to. This protocol has been successfully used in the field in response to the Iowa Flood of 2008, the Iowa City Landfill fire of 2013, and for a train derailment that occurred in 2014.
The University of Iowa's Protocols propose that when a disaster occurs, health and home survey information, as well as biological samples, will be collected from all consenting individuals in the vicinity of the disaster area. The University of Iowa has developed an IRB application, questionnaires, and consent documents to facilitate this data collection.
