Exploring Perceptions and Experiences of Bolivian Health Researchers With Research Ethics
(SAGE Publishing, 2015) Sarah Sullivan; Annette Aalborg; Armando Basagoitia; Jacqueline Cortes; Oscar Lanza; Jessica S. Schwind
In Bolivia, there is increasing interest in incorporating research ethics into study procedures, but there have been inconsistent application of research ethics practices. Minimal data exist regarding the experiences of researchers concerning the ethical conduct of research. A cross-sectional study was administered to Bolivian health leaders with research experience (n = 82) to document their knowledge, perceptions, and experiences of research ethics committees and infrastructure support for research ethics. Results showed that 16% of respondents reported not using ethical guidelines to conduct their research and 66% indicated their institutions did not consistently require ethics approval for research. Barriers and facilitators to incorporate research ethics into practice were outlined. These findings will help inform a comprehensive rights-based research ethics education program in Bolivia.

Spreading the word: Dissemination of research ethics education, policies and practices in Bolivia
(Elsevier BV, 2016) Sarah Sullivan; Annette Aalborg; Jacqueline Cortes; A. Valencia Canedo
below the age of 20 and patients with incomplete health, a total of 1,859 patients and the 11 physicians who took care of them were included in the study. For each physician, a Kaplan-Meier survival curve was constructed to compare the time between SICU admission and issuance of DNR order for each patient. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was established to evaluate the relationship between physician-associated factors and DNR order patterns.
