Our IRB sends an annual reminder requesting that the PI confirm that the
project is continuing as reviewed. If we don't receive confirmation by a
certain date, then we notify him or her that the project is considered
closed. The email is as follows:
According to our records, the above-referenced protocol does not require
formal IRB renewal because the research is in one of the four categories
specifically designated as Exempt in federal regulations. However, we do
confirm on an annual basis that your research continues to meet the criteria
for exemption and that there have been no significant changes in activity.
Consistent with an investigator's continuing responsibilities, if you plan
to make any changes to the research activity, consent forms, or subject
recruitment methods, please submit a Report of Change form for review and
approval (http://web.uccs.edu/osp/forms/)
So that I may update our records, please reply to this email by
xxxxxxx[date] and indicate whether:
1) the protocol has been completed,
2) the protocol is continuing as originally approved (includes
collecting or analyzing data), or
3) you will be submitting a Report of Change form for approval.
If I do not hear back, your protocol will be marked "complete" and no more
research or analysis may be conducted without submitting a new protocol.
Please direct any questions to the IRB Chair, Dr. Sandy Wurtele at x4150 or
at xxxxxx@uccs.edu
Thank you for your assistance in ensuring our records are current.
Hope this helps,

Subject: [RESADM-L] Exempt IRB Studies
Our IRB requires an annual recertification for Exempt IRB studies (which
our PIs feel is unnecessary).
Do any of your institutions require annual recertification for Exempt IRB
studies?
Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Alicia
