[Documents Recordkeeping] All CRFs and their other original supporting files (such as the informed consent, the lab report, the process records, medical history, the results of physical examinations and diagnosis, the diagnosis, procedure dates and the records regarding equipment management) must be set up in a secure central location by a research site staff and maintained for at least 2 years upon the notification on the termination or completion of the trial issued by MicroPort Medical.

In case the person in charge of keeping these files cannot keep the trial records continuously due to retirement, transferring or any other reason, the recordkeeping should be handed over to another person who is able to accept this task, and a written notification with the successor's name and address should be sent to MicroPort and the Ethics Committee.
