Q: What is informed consent?
Did You Know?
Informed consent is a legal and ethical process that ensures a patient has received and understood all relevant information about a proposed treatment or procedure—including its benefits, risks, alternatives, and consequences of refusal—before voluntarily agreeing to it. The purpose is to protect patient autonomy and their right to make decisions about their own body and healthcare.
