Instructions for Participating Institutions

Identify the point-of-contact person to coordinate the onboarding process as a new participating institution and fill out the new participating institution intake form. Once completed, the point-of-contact person will receive details to initiate the process. 

The onboarding process for new participating institutions consists of the following steps:

1. Review and sign Participant's Agreement
2. Submit IRB to your own institution. In order to participate from the registry, institutions need to have a local IRB in place to begin collecting data required for participation in the registry. The Resuscitative TEE Collaborative Registry will make available an IRB-approved protocol to use as template that can be locally adapted to facilitate this process. 
3. Identify the point-of-contact person to process a Data Use Agreement (DUA) between the new participating institution and University of Pennsylvania. 
4. Apply to receive a PennKey credential, required to set up an account at University of Pennsylvania’s REDCap database. The Program Manager will assist you to complete this process. 

Necessary documents can be found in Documents.
