Informed consent problems become more complicated.
Abstract
The advance of medical technology and heightened consumer awareness among patients are fueling a rise in some kinds of informed consent claims. Although these claims still make up a small percentage of the total, experts say plaintiffs' victories in two important California cases last year highlight problems in this area. The bottom line? "Judges are...a little bit more willing to hear the plaintiff's side," says one expert.
