In this segment of the medical ethics lecture series, Dr. Ha Pinto discusses the concept of consent in medicine, defined as permission or agreement for treatment or investigation. Gaining consent is both an ethical and legal duty of physicians. Consent can be obtained in three ways: written consent (e.g., a consent form for surgery), oral consent (e.g., verbal agreement for an examination), and implied consent (e.g., a patient offering their arm for blood draw). It is crucial for doctors to document any consent clearly in patient records and to be cautious with implied consent to avoid misinterpretation.
