RECOMMENDATION

Competing Interests

Before each meeting, every member of the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care (CTFPHC) and of the Evidence Review and Synthesis Centre (ERSC) completes a Declaration of Affiliations and Interests Form to report any potential conflicts of interest (e.g., financial, business or professional, intellectual). Disclosure is required for each new topic, and disclosures must be updated to reflect any changes that have occurred since an initial disclosure. Completed forms are kept on file, and outside experts who are asked to comment on the recommendations and documents prepared by the CTFPHC are also required to complete disclosure forms, which are kept on file. For more information, please refer to the CTFPHC’s Procedure Manual.

Intérêts concurrentiels

Avant chaque réunion, tous les membres du Groupe d’étude canadien sur les soins de santé préventifs (GECSSP) et du Centre d’analyse et de synthèse des données probantes (CASDP) remplissent le formulaire de déclaration des affiliations et des intérêts de l’Agence de la santé publique du Canada (ASPC) pour rapporter tout intérêt concurrentiel possible (ex. des intérêts concurrentiels financiers, d’affaires ou professionnels, intellectuels). Une divulgation est requise pour chaque nouveau sujet et les divulgations doivent être mises à jour de façon à tenir compte de tous les changements survenus depuis la première divulgation. Les formulaires dûment remplis sont versés aux dossiers à de l’ASPC. Les experts externes consultés pour commenter les recommandations et les documents préparés par le GECSSP sont également tenus de remplir des formulaires de déclaration, qui sont versés aux dossiers à l’ASPC. Pour plus d’information, veuillez consulter le Manuel des procédures du GECSSP.
