Promoting Universal Health Coverage for Amputees in Uganda through Social Enterprise and Engineering Innovation
REFNo: SIR192ES
The principles of patient autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice will be employed. Institutional safeguards, such as human subjects review committees and policies governing organisational ethics, will be followed. To this end, we shall seek ethical approval from the Makerere University School of Biomedical Sciences Research Ethics Committee and the Uganda National Council for Science and Technology. We shall also seek permission from the Ministry of Health as well as the management of the health units from which the data will be collected. We will provide verbal and written explanations of the study, including the aim, the level of participation required, potential risks of involvement, and the approximate duration of participation. The consent will include full verbal (in case of illiteracy) and written/signed informed consent from all individuals and groups before accepting to be interviewed. We will seek written permission to record interviews, and access meeting minutes, reports, and other relevant documents from relevant persons prior to including them in the research. Participants will be asked to give verbal consent and confirm this by reading and signing the consent form (included in the appendix). The key informants, including service users, will be free to withdraw consent at any time without giving an explanation and without this negatively affecting the care they receive. Data collectors will translate information into the relevant local language where required. We will seek verbal consent from participants who struggle to read and write, and the next of kin will sign the consent form on behalf of the user. We will only include participants 18 years of age and older who can provide consent on their own. The participant information sheet will explicitly state that participation in this study is purely voluntary. Participants can withdraw at any time, up to 14 days after data collection, without giving the reason for their withdrawal from the study. Their decision to withdraw from the study will not affect the services they receive. Participants will have up to 48 hours after receiving full details about the study, to consider participating in the research and ask questions.
