In this segment, Dr. Ha Pinto discusses the concept of consent in the context of medical ethics. Consent is defined as the permission or agreement provided by a patient for treatment or investigation. It is both an ethical and legal obligation for doctors to obtain consent before proceeding. There are three types of consent: written consent (such as a consent form for surgery), oral consent (like asking for permission to examine a patient), and implied consent (for instance, when a patient extends their arm for blood draw). It is crucial that all forms of consent are clearly documented in medical notes, and implied consent should be approached cautiously to avoid misinterpretation.
