Subject in Focus​
Informed Consent

​
​Informed consent is the process in which a health care provider educates a patient about the risks, benefits, and alternatives of a given procedure or intervention. The patient must be competent to make a voluntary decision about whether to undergo the procedure or intervention.

​
​Purpose of informed consent?

Informed consent has become the primary paradigm for protecting the legal rights of patients and guiding the ethical practice of medicine. It may be used for different purposes in different contexts: legal, ethical or administrative. Although these purposes overlap, they are not identical, thus leading to different standards and criteria for what constitutes “adequate” informed consent.

Important Guidelines laid by
supreme court for valid consent

​
​1. A doctor has to seek and secure the consent of the patient before commencing of
the treatment.

2. The adequate information to be furnished by the doctor (or a member of his team)
who treats the patient, should enable the patient to make a balanced judgment as to
whether he should submit to the particular treatment or not

(a) the nature and procedure of the treatment and its purpose, benefits, and effect;

(b) alternatives, if any, available;

(c) an outline of the substantial risks;

(d) adverse consequences of refusing treatment

3. Consent given only for a diagnostic procedure, cannot be considered as consent for
therapeutic treatment. Consent given for a specific treatment procedure will not be
valid for conducting some other treatment procedure.

4. There can be a common consent for diagnostic and operative procedures where
they are contemplated.There can also be a common consent for a particular
surgical procedure and an additional or further procedure that may become
necessary during the course of surgery.

The nature and extent of information to be furnished by the doctor to the patient to
secure the consent need not be of the stringent and high degree mentioned in
Canterbury but should be of the extent which is accepted as normal and proper by a
body of medical men skilled and experienced in the particular field.
​

Stages in the Consent Process

Obtaining informed consent in medicine is process that should include:

(1) describing the proposed intervention,

(2) emphasizing the patient's role in decision-making,

(3) discussing alternatives to the proposed intervention,

(4) discussing the risks of the proposed intervention and

(5) eliciting the patient's preference (usually by signature).
​

Invalid Consent

The following situations will make the consent invalid:

1. If it was obtained by fraud, by misrepresentation as to the nature of the procedure or
by undue influence or by threat of violence.
​2. The consent was obtained when the patient was under sedation.
​3. If there is failure in giving proper information and sufficient disclosure regarding the
procedure.
​4. If the consent is given by a minor since he is not legally competent to give it.
​5. If the consent is given by a person of unsound mind or mentally handicapped.
​6. If the procedure performed by a doctor is substantially different from the one for
which consent was given or the procedure performed exceeds the scope of
consent.

7. If the different physician than the one to whom consent was given, carries out the
procedure.
