Notas del editor
- Before we begin, this is a reminder to turn off all pagers, cell phones, and computers during this educational session. Please also note that you are required to participate in the group debriefing session at the end of this educational training where you will have the opportunity to reflect and evaluate the training that you participated in today. Please complete the “Pre-Program Self-Assessment: Confidence Level” form1 prior to the beginning of the lecture.
- Why do we care about informed consent? Shared decision-making is a key aspect of patient-centered care; good information is needed to make good decisionsIt is an important to partner with patients to improve quality and safety. Patients share the responsibility for their care. There are important ethical and legal principles Are the residents at this stage familiar with shared decision-making?Uncomfortable situations. Physician providing too much information in an encounter…what to do. Providing options-where is the cut-off point for amounts of information. How should the options be presented? Physician awareness of own biases; counseling the patient-how much? Avoiding the paternalistic approach. Some patients prefer this way. Science is not always clear-cut, and what does this mean in the conversation? 1-5
- In your SP encounter, you will obtain informed consent for placement of a central line. You’ll get some feedback from the SP who will also complete an evaluation. When all have completed the SP encounter, we will gather to debrief the experience as a group.
- Let’s look at this ~4 minute video clip. [Click on the Green Box in Slide Show mode to play video clip.]
- Open with a request for reactions from the group – what worked well? What might have been done differently? Did it reflect experiences that people in the group might have had?
- This follows our effective communication strategy that we have already established and includes reminding us to perform our hand hygiene and to properly identify each patient, then providing privacy, sitting with the patient, being aware of body language and tone of voice, and introducing oneself (including role) to the patient and others.2 Determining who else should be present is also important in helping the patient feel supported in the conversation. If family is already present, and the patient wants them to be part of the conversation, then be welcoming and inclusive. If a third party e.g. a social worker, a nurse, etc. is present, ask the patient whether s/he would like this person to remain for the conversation and what role the patient would like this person to play. We are also reminded to provide adequate time with no interruptions for the conversation especially since this conversation is difficult and complex. So, turn off your pager, cell phone and computer, close the door to the room, and do not let anyone interrupt you and the patient. A comfortable, welcoming environment fosters better communication. Reminder to be friendly, caring, respectful, and helpful without berating the patient when providing information and asking questions. The important thing here is to have mutual respect. Be very aware of your own body language. Your words will not be heard if your body language conveys disrespect. 2
- While this module is really about informed consent, the concept of shared decision-making is important to understand. The optional article on the OPTIONS scale provides references and more information about SDM. Key principles that we want to reinforce include the above. Below are the original sentences we put together from the OPTIONS scale in the article.Draws attention to an identified problem as one that requires a decision-making process. Indicates the need for a decision-making (or deferring) stage. Assesses the patient’s preferred approach to receiving information to assist decision-making (e.g. discussion, reading printed material, assessing graphical data, using videotape or other material). Elicits the patient’s preferred level of involvement in decision making.States that there is more than one way to deal with the identified problem. Lists options, which can include the choice of “no action”. Explains the pros and cons of options to the patient (taking “no action” is an option).Explores the patient’s expectations (or ideas) about how the problem(s) is to be managed. Explores the patient’s concerns (fears) about how the problem(s) is to be managed.Checks that the patient has understood the information. Offers the patient explicit opportunities to ask questions during the decision-making process. Indicates the need to review the decision (or deferment). [OPTION scale steps listed above are from p. 1015 in Pellerin et al article. 1]
- We’ll now focus more on the specific issue of informed consent. This slide reviews the DHMC policy. 3 There are two important aspects to consider: the conversation & the documentation – getting informed consent is NOT just getting a paper signed. . We will begin with the conversation part.Verify patient’s identity using 2 patient identifiers.Be sure to ask the patient how s/he wants to be addressed. What types of information regarding risks & benefits is important? What are participants’ practices – how do they quantify risk? How do they describe alternatives? How is the information customized for a particular patient?How do we know when we are slipping into the use of medical jargon?How do they check for understanding? How could teach back be used?
- This slide covers the required documentation, which should include BOTH a signed/timed/dated consent form as well as a note in the chart that summarizes the conversation and the patient’s decision. Ask about participants’ documentation practices..
- Build on participants’ experiences in obtaining consents. It is likely that topics of language barrier, incapacitation, or refusal may come up; however there may be other challenges that arise. It will be important to tie the discussion back to the principles of informed consent.
- Talking points include:The incapacitated / incompetent patient in a procedural / surgical situationThe first question should be, Does the patient have an advance directive (formal proxy; a durable power of attorney (DPOA) for healthcare)?If no advance directive / DPOA, which family member do you go to (Who is the legal next of kin)? Look at spouse and adult children.Is there an assigned guardian?If the procedure is urgent and no one can legally sign for the patient, need two physicians in agreement that procedure is medically necessary (the right thing to do for the patient) and needed now.If there is time, can go through guardianship process. Takes at least 2 weeks in NH; uicker in VT (judge talks with MD).Care Management can help Remember: This is not always a black & white situation. You want to always do what is in the best interest of the patient!
- Talking points include:Treatment Refusal:Does the patient have the capacity to understand what s/he has been told including risks and benefits?If there is any question about whether the patient can understand, get another MD involved to ascertain patient’s capacity to understand. The patient also has the right to ask for a consult! If there is still question as to capacity to understand, you may wish to ask for a psychiatric consult for the patient. Remember: Ultimately, the competent patient has the right to refuse interventions! Document the refusal. You want to make sure all the information is provided to the patient without sounding coercive. Education points only! Medical staff should stick to medical factors and can ask for help from discharge planning (Care Management) with any issues around insurance paying (or not) for expenses should patient refuse treatment / procedure.
- We are obligated to offer an interpreter.If the patient refuses an interpreter, s/he can request having a family member interpretPhysician can request an interpreter if not comfortable that the family member is interpreting the information adequately / correctlyThe DHMC Care Management office has an Interpreter Coordinator who may be reached at extension 5-5792
- The bottom line is that informed consent is legally up to the parents of the child. It is possible that an adolescent may not assent to a treatment or procedure s/he is facing even though the parents have signed the consent form. There can be many situations that can occur regarding legal consent and children, but the purpose of this slide to remind you that informed consent also involves parents and children.

These safety checks - now referred to as the Joint Commission Universal Protocol (UP) - include: pre-procedure verification procedural site marking conducting a 'time out' Forms:Policy: Protocol for Prevention of Wrong Patient, Wrong Procedure, Wrong Site/Side Errors
- What’s next? 6 Explain what will happen next and discuss expectations regarding the OSCEs portion of the training. This is an opportunity to explain that the conversation about informed consent is the priority of this encounter, NOT the documentation. Expectations and Reminders: Each learner will complete the “Multi Source Evaluation”7 right after the encounter, then participate in the group debriefing session. Learners will complete the “Post-Program Self-Assessment: Confidence Level” form before leaving the PSTC.
