The I-DSD/I-CAH/I-TS registry is approved in the UK as a research database that archives non-personally identifiable information collected as part of routine clinical practice. The database operates an Opt-In policy for consent for patients whose details are included in the Registry. A fresh application for ethics and data governance approvals in the UK occurs every 5 years and the Registry was last approved in 2019 when the information sheets and consent forms were also revised. Patient information sheets and consent forms in several languages that are based on the UK ethics approved paperwork are provided below as samples. Local approval may be required so please consult local institutions. The Registry recommends that all local information sheets and consent forms should be reviewed every 5 years as a minimum. Many centres use the I-DSD information sheets to obtain consent for DSD and CAH. However, for some languages CAH specific information sheets are also available. If you have any queries about these information sheets or would like to develop information sheets in another language, please contact us.
