Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The issue of patient consent has recently become the focus of much attention and litigation. Under the doctrine of informed consent, physicians must make adequate disclosures to patients before proceeding with treatment, unless the circumstances make obtaining the patient's express consent impracticable. This article explores the rules whereby physicians may render treatment under such circumstances. |
