Expedited Review Checklist

1. In triplicate Expedited Review Checklist All information on how to submit a Study to the Research Ethics Board (REB), for expedited review is posted on the REB web-site (access through the RVH home-page). All applicants are encouraged to review this web-site prior submitting an application. We look forward to receiving your Study for review, however, with the advent of the new privacy regulations as defined by PHIPA, there has been a tremendous increase in the number and type of studies that now must be reviewed by the REB, therefore please note that all essential components of the Study must be submitted accurately – and in their entirety - on the first occasion of their submission, otherwise the option for expedited review will not be available. Please Note: All Documentation is to be submitted in Triplicate, collated into separate sets and stapled or clipped with sturdy, well-anchored clips. Incomplete or illegible submissions may be returned to the investigator without review.
