In this segment, Dr. Ha Pinto discusses the concept of consent in the medical field, emphasizing its importance in medical ethics. Consent is defined as permission or agreement for treatments or investigations, and obtaining it is an ethical and legal duty of physicians. Consent can be expressed in three forms: written consent, such as a consent form for surgery; oral consent, for instance, when permission is sought for a physical examination; and implied consent, like a patient extending their arm for a blood draw. Dr. Pinto underscores the necessity of clearly documenting consent in medical notes and advises caution with implied consent to prevent misinterpretation.
