Informed Consent Introduction

Informed consent is a crucial document in healthcare, going beyond a simple formality to serve as a legal requirement. It empowers individuals with the right to make autonomous decisions and exercise self-determination. Obtaining informed consent before a medical procedure is necessary to safeguard the physician from potential legal liabilities. Failure to obtain proper informed consent can lead to civil or criminal charges if the patient is harmed. Additionally, the doctor could face prosecution for medical negligence due to their failure to comply with this legal requirement.
