A member asked:

What's an institutional review board needed for?

Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Depends: It depends on what type of institutional review board it is. If for an individual it may focus on performance or conduct. Sorry, the question is too general to provide a more definitive response.
