Research Quality Management (RQM)

Establishment

The NHG Health Research Quality Management (RQM) Programme is dedicated to promoting the proper conduct of research and fostering a research culture grounded in high ethical standards. The NHG Health RQM Programme collaborates closely with the NHG Health Domain Specific Review Board (DSRB) to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations, as well as local and international guidelines.

Scope

The NHG Health RQM Programme applies to all research studies conducted within NHG Health and its partner institutions. This includes studies approved by the NHG Health DSRB or external Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) with collaborative agreements with NHG Health.

Governance

The NHG Health RQM Programme was established under the NHG Health Office of Human Research Protection Programme (OHRPP). While it reports to the NHG Health Research Ethics Committee, it remains independent of the NHG Health DSRB.
