Standardizing the reuse of clinical residual biological samples for research / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

Clinical residual biological specimens are invaluable for medical research and can be reused for medical research. This paper expounded the possibility, necessity and applied range of the medical research reuse of clinical residual biological specimens and put forward some suggestions on how to standardly supervise clinical residual biological specimens for medical research reuse. The authors raised four aspects of concern how to strengthen the management of ethical review; how to establish strict privacy protection and information confidentiality system; how to keep samples reasonably to ensure clinical examination; and how to ensure the compliance treatment of residual biological specimens after reuse, so as to promote clinical residual biological specimens more normatively and effectively used in medical research.
