The process of obtaining informed patient consent.

Karl Fortes Mayer1.   

Abstract

Obtaining patients' consent for procedures and operations is not simply a question of getting them to sign a form. It is a process that enables health professionals to explain to patients what is going to be done to them. It should inform them of the risks and benefits of any proposed procedures, and of any alternatives that might be available. It demonstrates respect for patient autonomy and should help to prevent legal action against health professionals.
