PLEASE NOTE ABOUT YOUR PARTICIPATION
Confidentiality Your data is confidential. Your veterinarian will receive the test results with your dog’s name but the dog will be identified by a site code identifier within the Study database. The Owner Questionnaire is proprietary information and cannot be copied, printed, shared or viewed by anyone other than study participants. Risks Misdiagnosis is always a grave risk with Valley Fever. Titers may be negative in very sick dogs. Valley Fever is frequently mistaken for cancer. Blood draws are sometimes difficult and there might be bruising where the needles are inserted. There is no compensation available in the unlikely event of physical harm or misdiagnosis. Sharing the Results Important and relevant information from the study will be shared with you through updates at the Canine Valley Fever Project website. Results from the Study will be published in scientific journals. Dogs that are positive for Valley Fever will constitute a registry that will provide valuable cases studies for future veterinarian study. Right to Withdraw After the Screening Visit if you do not wish to participate simply let your Study Vet know. If you do decide to continue with the Study and have to withdraw later on that is also acceptable. Please just notify the Study Vet. |
