What steps must a researcher take when dealing with human subjects?

A researcher must take precautions very seriously when it comes to dealing with human subjects. They must consider things like what their subjects previous health conditions are and what their health is like now. With this information it is key to think about what would happen to the subject when they perform this study, and get the participants consent. Thinking ahead on things like this can help prevent something like unnecessary harm to the patient, which results in unethical behavior. Consent and privacy for the patient are also crucial for the subject because without both things can again, result in unethical behavior.
