TDTiffany DialTYToby YanowitzBMBurhan Mahmood

Key Points

  • Challenges in informed consent processes impact equity across interventional trials in neonatology,
  • Parents generally support research in the NICU, given that language is clear and timing is appropriate.
  • The review highlights gaps in understanding informed consent during neonatal trials in various settings.
  • Equity in research might improve if clearer communication and appropriate timing for parental involvement are emphasized.

Abstract

The challenges inherent to conducting research in neonatology have not received the attention it deserves, especially when it comes to interventional trials, raising questions about equity of research in this patient cohort. Parents view research positively and are supportive provided that the timing is appropriate and language is clear.
