Which of the following is NOT one of the 8 basic elements of informed consent per FDA guidelines?

  1. Description of compensation for top executives

  2. Expected duration of the study

  3. Confidentiality measures

  4. Statement that participation is voluntary

The correct answer is: Description of compensation for top executives

While the other options are included in the 8 basic elements of informed consent per FDA guidelines, Description of compensation for top executives is not. This is because compensation for top executives is not relevant to the participant's decision-making in giving informed consent. The 8 basic elements are designed to ensure that participants have all the necessary information to make an informed decision about their participation in a study.
