The nurse researcher protects study participants by which of the following?

A
Feedback:
The researcher considers risks and the benefits of the study for the client in order to protect the participants. Informed consent means that participants have adequate information about the study, comprehend the information, and have the power of free choice, enabling them to consent to or decline participation voluntarily. Keeping painful procedure information from the study participant would violate informed consent and should not be done. The nurse is not always able to prevent psychological discomfort during and after the study. Simply because a study may ultimately benefit society, it does not necessarily follow that this benefit will outweigh the risks to participants.
