In this medical ethics lecture, Dr. Ha Pinto discusses the concept of consent in medicine, defined as a patient's permission or agreement for treatment or investigation. Gaining consent is both an ethical and legal duty for doctors. Consent can be categorized into three types: written consent (e.g., consent forms for operations), oral consent (e.g., asking to examine a patient), and implied consent (e.g., a patient extending their arm for a blood draw). It's crucial that any form of consent is clearly documented in the patient's notes, and reliance on implied consent should be minimized to avoid potential misinterpretation.
