Abstract:
This thesis explores the challenging concept of informed consent. It is an empirical study investigated in a medico-legal context. The research combines the use of quantitative and qualitative research methods to analyse the different views of the parties who are actively involved in the consent process in both medical and legal settings. The project provides a comprehensive review of the literature concerning the legal aspects of consent and information disclosure, critically analysing relevant case law and academic opinion. The problematic areas are highlighted and from these a number of res

Abstract:
That a person’s consent is required prior to any medical intervention, is now well established in law, ethics and medical practice, and is the most profound practical manifestation of respect for autonomy, or self-determination in medicine. For consent to be valid a number of conditions need to be satisfied; the person making the decision must have sufficient capacity (competence) to make the decision; they must have been provided with sufficient information about the proposed intervention and about relevant alternatives such that their decision is adequately informed; the decision must be app

Abstract:
Introduction and background Recruitment to cancer clinical trials needs to be improved, as does patient understanding about clinical trials, to enable patients to make an informed choice about whether or not to take part. The main reason that clinically eligible patients do not take part in clinical trials is because they refuse; poor understanding of the research has been associated with patient refusal. Audiovisual patient information (AVPI) has been shown to improve knowledge/understanding in various areas of practice but there is limited information about its effect in the cancer clinical

In this thesis I analyse the concept of consent to medical treatment. I explore its ethical basis in autonomy and examine how other principles and ethical approaches might interact with the rules derived from autonomy. I then situate the relevant ethical obligations within the context f the healthcare professional-patient relationship which subsequently allows me to develop a textured model of consent. The model is predicated on the theory that consent is a secondary right, derivative on the underlying right which it controls. By giving or withholding consent, the autonomous person determines

Abstract:
Informed consent is an integral component of modern medicine; however, gaps between ethical objectives and psychological corollaries linger. Despite mounting evidence to demonstrate its impact on human behavior, physicians and bioethicists scantily construe it as a source of therapeutic influence. Here we explore judicious ways to leverage this standard-of-care tool as both an ethical requisite in the clinical milieu and a procedure, which could either bolster or deflate the health of individuals, perhaps through a placebo effect.First, in a literature review, we examine the history and compo

Abstract:
Consent is a concept used frequently and with great significance in a wide array of legal fields. It serves to regulate relationships, legitimize authority, delimit normality, and entrench idealized ways of being in the world. Yet despite the consequence of these functions, there is very little precision within legal scholarship about just what consent is. Few investigations of its definitional content depart from presumptive statements about personal autonomy. These associations are often described as the ‘common sense’ of consent and serve to secure a foundationalist discourse about what con
