iConsent

Interactive Consent (iConsent) is a web-based platform that builds upon REDCap's eConsent to improve informed decision making by utilizing adult learning for the concise consent summary. iConsent provides frameworks for investigators to customize for any study utilizing interactive techniques within a user-friendly human-computer interface that works on any electronic device (i.e., smartphones, computers, tablets). Some key features include use of visual imagery to reinforce text, audio recorded text, infographics, and teach-back questions. It was developed from results of a clinical trial that demonstrated significant improvements in knowledge, satisfaction, and clarity of information (NCT03141307).
