Clinical Trial Consent Form
Informed consent shouldn't be a clipboard a participant skims in the waiting room. Collect what your research team actually needs, eligibility, comprehension, guardian consent, before enrollment starts.
Consent conversations happen wherever there's a free exam room: a coordinator talking through risks while a participant signs a paper form, a guardian initialing pages between other appointments, a comprehension check that's really just "any questions?" By the time the file reaches the study binder, half the details are missing, whether a guardian's signature was actually required, whether the participant could repeat back what the study involves.
Typeform's clinical trial consent form asks for what your study team needs to document consent, participant information, study arm and procedures, and a comprehension check, and uses conditional logic to branch from there. A minor participant can route to guardian consent and a separate assent section; an adult participant can skip straight to their own consent and signature, instead of everyone working through sections that don't apply to them.
Every consent record lands in one place instead of a paper file in a locked cabinet. Connect the form to your study management system through Zapier, and a submission can flag an incomplete section or a missing guardian signature automatically. Ask for ID or eligibility documentation up front, and the coordinator starts the file with everything attached instead of chasing a signature before the next visit.
A clinical trial consent form is an online form research teams use to document that a participant, or their guardian, understood and agreed to the study's procedures, risks, and benefits before enrollment. Instead of a paper form filled out in an exam room, the participant completes it directly, and the study team starts with a complete, timestamped record.
A paper form captures a signature, not whether the participant could explain what they agreed to. A form can build in a comprehension check and route each participant to the sections that actually apply to them, and it creates a digital record instead of a page in a binder that has to be tracked down later.
Ask for what your study team and IRB will need on file:
- Participant name and study identification
- Study arm, procedures, and duration
- Risks, benefits, and confidentiality terms
- A comprehension confirmation
- Signature, date, and guardian or legal representative information if applicable
Not on its own. A submission documents that someone completed the consent process, it doesn't enroll them until the study team verifies eligibility and an investigator confirms consent was properly obtained. Connect the form to your study management system through Zapier, and a submission can flag it for review automatically, but a person still confirms enrollment. Any consent form and process should also be reviewed and approved by your IRB before use.
Yes. Add a file upload question and participants or guardians can attach ID, eligibility documentation, or a separately signed page in the same submission, no extra paperwork required. Pair it with conditional logic so the upload only appears for the participants who actually need it.

X-Ray Release Form
A phone call asking to send X-rays to a new provider isn't an authorization your compliance file can rely on. Collect patient information, the receiving provider's details, and a signed authorization before the images go out, so your front desk isn't scrambling to prove who approved a release.

Palliative Care Assessment Form
A symptom check done verbally during a rushed home visit isn't the kind of record that shows whether pain management is actually working from one visit to the next. Collect symptom severity, functional status, and psychosocial needs consistently, so a care team can see change over time instead of relying on memory of the last visit.

Dental Treatment Plan Form
A treatment plan explained chairside, in the few minutes right after an exam, doesn't hold up when a patient's trying to remember it at the front desk. Collect what your practice actually needs, the recommended procedures, cost estimate, and signed consent, before treatment gets scheduled.

Medical Physical Exam Form
A health history filled out on a clipboard in the waiting room, minutes before being called back, isn't a history anyone fills in completely. Collect what your provider actually needs, patient information, health history, and current symptoms, before the exam starts.

Nursing Home Complaint Form
A family member who calls the front desk about a missed medication or an unanswered call light often gets a verbal apology and nothing written down, no record that it happened, no way to tell if it's the third time this month or the first. And if what's actually being reported is abuse or neglect, a facility's own intake form isn't where that report should end, or even start.

Dental Record Release Form
A release that just says "I authorize my records to be sent" doesn't say which records, sent to whom, or for how long that authorization is good, and HIPAA has a specific list of what actually has to be in there for the release to count as valid. Spell out what's being released, to whom, and until when, before the request goes out.
