Consequence of Error/Judgement

The Coordinator is responsible for:

Clinical mistakes made by Coordinator could be life threatening to patients. Ensuring patient safety includes:

  • accurately judging study eligibility
  • being prepared for any side effects (expected or unexpected)
  • updating clinical skills and knowledge to meet the demands of clinical complexity

Lack of careful attention to regulatory guidelines and approvals could suspend Investigator/physician and hospital/University as a site for further clinical research and/or funding. The performance of clinical trials and research projects must strictly conform to appropriate regulations:

  • personal: maintaining professional behavior and respect for patients and staff
  • local: the UBC Clinical Research Ethics Board, Good Clinical Practice
  • provincial: B.C. Privacy Act
  • federal: Health Canada, International Conference on Harmonization, Tri- Council Policy Statement
  • international: U.S. Federal Code of Regulations (FDA), Declaration of Helsinki

In addition, the Manager and Director rely on the Coordinator to alert them to clinical problems and unexpected events concerning study patients and trial conduct.

Lack of study enrollment and completion of work according to deadlines would threaten loss of funding and consideration for future invitations to participate in clinical trials.

Poor communication skills with patients would jeopardize their participation, and with sponsors and referring/community physicians would reflect badly on the reputation of the research group.

Supervision Received
The Clinical Research Coordinator reports to the Research Manager, Principal Investigator, attending Cardiologists, and the Director. Since the conduct of a trial may involve working independently, the coordinator is responsible to apprise the Manager and Director of any important communication or events.
