Other methods for obtaining anatomical material are strictly prohibited. | ||
# Any research involving the use of human anatomical material from a living individual requires IRB approval (i.e. amputation, or some post-mortem uses when consent is obtained while the research subject is living). Refer to the [https://net.unmc.edu/rss/ UNMC Guidelines for the Protection of Human Subjects in Research Studies]and UNMC Policy No. 8013, [[Human Tissue Use and Transfer]]. Research on cadavers does not require IRB approval. The IRB, however, does serve as the privacy board for the institution in the event that the researcher would receive protected health information (HIPAA) about the deceased. Contact the Office of Regulatory Affairs for guidance on how to proceed. | # Any research involving the use of human anatomical material from a living individual requires IRB approval (i.e. amputation, or some post-mortem uses when consent is obtained while the research subject is living).

If a requested human anatomical material or human body segment cannot be supplied by the Nebraska Anatomical Board, a UNMC Nebraska State Anatomical Board Representative or iEXCEL Advanced Surgical Simulation Supervisor shall assist in obtaining anatomical material from a source approved by the UNMC Nebraska Anatomical Board Representative. A copy of an approved request signed by a UNMC Nebraska State Anatomical Board Representative or iEXCEL Advanced Surgical Simulation Supervisor must accompany any requested human anatomical material. | ||
# All human anatomical material shall be identified by the decedent identification number of origin. Identification tags should not be removed, unless temporary removal is necessary to conduct the test/procedure on the material. If identification tags are temporarily removed, the user shall establish another mechanism to account for the material (i.e. the container in which the material is maintained contains the identifier). The identification numbers shall be reaffixed to the material after the test or procedure is complete. If the recipient further subdivides human anatomical material, identification of parts must be maintained. Additional identification tags are available through the Nebraska Anatomical Board or iEXCEL. | # All human anatomical material shall be identified by the decedent identification number of origin.
