Online Review (IACUC Administrator view)

 

The Online Review page of the Protocol document appears as an additional tabbed page to the right of the Protocol Actions page when the IACUCIACUC Administrator assigns the protocol to a schedule and assigns committee members to primary/secondary roles through the Modify Submission Details section. All active committee members are allowed to perform Online Review for an IACUC protocol. The system generates an Online Review section for all active committee members.

 

For each assigned reviewer, the system generates an Online Review section. The Online Review page accessible to the IACUC Administrator aggregates the Online Review sections for all the assigned reviewers’ one below the other.

 

Figure 951 Protocol Document – Online Review Section Example

As assigned reviewers perform their Online Reviews, the system aggregates each reviewer’s Online Review within the Online Review page for the IACUC Administrator to manage. The IACUC Administrator can access to both in progress reviews and completed reviews within the Online Review page. Depending on whether the Online Review is in progress or completed, the IACUC Administrator can perform a variety of actions on the Online Review. They can approve e the review, accept the review comments, delete the review, return it to the reviewer for further changes, change private and final setting and also enter comments on behalf of the reviewer. The Online Review for each assigned reviewer is stacked one below the other in the Online Review page for the IACUC Administrator.

The system helps the IACUC Administrator distinguish completed reviews from in-progress reviews within the Online Review section. In progress reviews have a warning message displayed and a document status of Saved within the Online Review sub-section. The IACUC Administrator is limited to Approve Review and Delete Review actions on an in-progress review. In contrast, Online reviews that have been completed by the reviewers have a document status of Final within the Online Review sub-section. The IACUC Administrator can perform Accept Review comments, Return the review or Delete the review actions on completed reviews.
