The IRB is responsible for ensuring that risks to subjects in research are minimized. One way the IRB accomplishes this is to review a study team's proposed procedures for reviewing study data and monitoring subject safety. This review is called data and safety monitoring, and the actual procedures involved vary depending on the study.
