We respect the wishes of members of our community, and those who do not wish to be enrolled in the TAP trial. If you do not want to participate, you can request to opt out. We offer a silicone bracelet with the words “Opt Out of Trauma Research” engraved on it. You will have to wear this bracelet during the time this study is being conducted – TBA.
Even if you opt out, there is no guarantee that under emergency circumstances the bracelet will be attached to you while you are being cared for in our Emergency Department. You might still be enrolled in the study. In the unlikely event that you are enrolled after you have requested not to be enrolled, we will remove you from the study if you wish. However, we are required by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) to keep any information that has already been collected.
If you know (or think) that you are allergic to Prothrombin Complex Concentrate, or its components, please let us know, by requesting an opt-out bracelet.
There is one way to get your Opt Out of Trauma Research bracelet:
- Contact the UAB Center for Injury Science Office at (205) 996-4700 or via email at cis@uabmc.edu.
