Directives for Human Experimentation NUREMBERG CODE

1. The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.
This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give
consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of
choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud,
deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or
coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of
the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make
an understanding and enlightened decision. This latter element
requires that before the acceptance of an affirmative decision by the
experimental subject there should be made known to him the nature,
duration, and purpose of the experiment; the method and means by which
it is to be conducted; all inconveniences and hazards reasonable to be
expected; and the effects upon his health or person which may possibly
come from his participation in the experiment.

The duty and responsibility for ascertaining the quality of the
consent rests upon each individual who initiates, directs or engages
in the experiment. It is a personal duty and responsibility which may
not be delegated to another with impunity.

2. The experiment should be such as to yield fruitful results for the
good of society, unprocurable by other methods or means of study, and
not random and unnecessary in nature.

3. The experiment should be so designed and based on the results of
animal experimentation and a knowledge of the natural history of the
disease or other problem under study that the anticipated results will
justify the performance of the experiment.

4. The experiment should be so conducted as to avoid all unnecessary
physical and mental suffering and injury.

5. No experiment should be conducted where there is an a priori reason
to believe that death or disabling injury will occur; except, perhaps,
in those experiments where the experimental physicians also serve as
subjects.

6. The degree of risk to be taken should never exceed that determined
by the humanitarian importance of the problem to be solved by the
experiment.

7. Proper preparations should be made and adequate facilities provided
to protect the experimental subject against even remote possibilities
of injury, disability, or death.

8. The experiment should be conducted only by scientifically qualified
persons. The highest degree of skill and care should be required
through all stages of the experiment of those who conduct or engage in
the experiment.

9. During the course of the experiment the human subject should be at
liberty to bring the experiment to an end if he has reached the
physical or mental state where continuation of the experiment seems to
him to be impossible.

10. During the course of the experiment the scientist in charge must
be prepared to terminate the experiment at any stage, if he has
probable cause to believe, in the exercise of the good faith, superior
skill and careful judgment required of him that a continuation of the
experiment is likely to result in injury, disability, or death to the
experimental subject.
