This insightful Research Handbook examines the persistent tensions between medical practitioners and patients in the context of consent. Experts contributors from legal, philosophical and medical fields explore the impact of the Supreme Court’s 2015 decision in Montgomery v Lanarkshire Health Board through a variety of lenses.
Chapters cover the safety dimensions of consent, as well as the role of objective perspectives, autonomy and dignity. They address medical consent in research and innovative treatments in different jurisdictions, focusing on areas where varied interests are not easily resolved, such as abortion, end of life care, mental capacity and the treatment of children and older people. The Research Handbook also highlights the difficulties of applying legal and ethical rules of consent in the setting of Emergency departments.
This is an essential resource for students and academics specialising in health law, philosophy and ethics and for those interested in the tensions of informed medical consent. It is also a beneficial guide for medical and legal practitioners, presenting crucial insights into the practicalities of implementing legal regulations around medical consent.
