CC Grand Rounds: Ethics Rounds: Capacity to Consent: What is it? Who has it?

CC Grand Rounds: Ethics Rounds: Capacity to Consent: What is it? Who has it? Ethical clinical care and ethical clinical research depend on obtaining appropriate informed consent. However, obtaining consent in practice raises a number of challenges. What is required to give consent for clinical care, what is required to give consent for research, and how do they differ? Doe s an underlying cognitive impairment or psychiatric condition undermine the capacity to consent? Please join us to discuss these and other challenges clinicians face when obtaining informed consent.
