Standard Operating Procedures

The Trinity Health Office of Research & Innovation – West Michigan Clinical Research Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) are guidelines which aim to ensure efficiency, quality results and uniform performance among all research conducted within the organization. It is essential that all investigators and key research personnel engaged in human research (proposals involving drugs, devices, interventional or behavioral treatments) at Trinity Health Michigan have read, understand, and comply with these guidelines.

Key research personnel is defined as the Principal Investigator, Sub-Investigator(s) and any other research staff who are directly involved in the conduct of research with study participants or who are directly involved with the clinical trial and/or handling of private information related to study participants during the course of the research project. Key research personnel also include individuals (faculty sponsors or program directors) who provide direct oversight of the human research.

The Office of Research & Innovation and the Regional Institutional Review Board (IRB) each has their own set of SOPs linked below.
