Who will take informed consent? {26a}
The study protocol will be introduced to eligible patients by the research coordinator on duty at the time of their presentation to the MOI emergency department. If interested in participating, the research coordinator will explain the full details and expectations of participation in the study. Patients will then conduct the informed consent with the research coordinator, and both participants will sign and date the informed consent document which will be preserved in a secure location at the study site. Should a patient be unable to sign a written consent, a mark of approval will be made by the participant in the participant signature section and a witness to the informed consent process will sign below indicating they observed the process and answered any additional patient questions alongside the research coordinator.
