Informed consent is when a person, usually a patient, agrees to undergo a medical procedure or treatment after receiving clear information about the procedure, its risks, benefits, and alternatives. It makes sure that individuals have the necessary information to make careful decisions about their healthcare. If a patient is unable to provide consent because of factors like being unconscious or having mental problems, someone else, such as a legal guardian or family member, may provide consent instead, following legal and ethical guidelines. Informed consent typically involves a discussion between the healthcare provider and the patient, where the provider explains the treatment, including potential risks and side effects, as well as any available alternatives. The patient then has the opportunity to ask questions and express concerns before agreeing to proceed with the treatment. Informed consent is a fundamental ethical principle in medicine and is legally required in many places to protect the rights of patients.
