implied consent

What are the Limitations of Implied Consent?

While implied consent can be a practical approach, it has its limitations. It is not suitable for invasive procedures, treatments involving significant risk, or scenarios where the patient’s understanding and agreement are not clear. For procedures like surgical interventions or treatments that carry substantial risks, explicit written consent is necessary to ensure that the patient is fully informed and agrees to the procedure.
