Dr. Ha Pinto discusses consent in the context of medical ethics. Consent is defined as permission or agreement for treatment or investigation. It is the ethical and legal duty of doctors to obtain consent from patients. Consent can be expressed in three ways: written consent (e.g., for surgery), oral consent (e.g., seeking permission for examination), and implied consent (e.g., a patient extending their arm for blood draw). It is crucial to document consent clearly in patient notes, especially for oral and implied consent, to avoid misunderstandings. The lecture emphasizes the importance of obtaining and recording consent responsibly.
