Standardized Informed Consent Form for Clinicians Administering Platelet-Rich Plasma.
Curēus 2024 April
Introduction When it comes to medico-legal malpractice suits, lawyers and insurers tend to focus on informed consent documentation. Unfortunately, there is no standard protocol for obtaining informed consent for the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, which might cause problems. This study aimed to mitigate this concern through the development of a standardized informed consent document for PRP injections, grounded in evidence-based practices. Materials and methods An examination of databases was conducted to explore the medico-legal ramifications associated with PRP injections, as well as the broader topic of informed consent, with a particular focus on the context of PRP injections. Moreover, interviews were carried out with healthcare providers and individuals who had received PRP injections within the preceding year, utilizing a semi-structured methodology. Results We developed an evidence-based informed consent document tailored for PRP injections. To guarantee its legal validity, the document underwent review by a legal specialist. Subsequently, our institutions implemented the finalized form for PRP injection procedures over one year. Conclusion A legally valid and evidence-based informed consent form for PRP injections would ensure patient's rights, and encourage open communication and transparency between them and the doctor. Moreover, if a lawsuit were to arise, it would serve as a critical document in the doctor's defense and withstand scrutiny from lawyers and the judiciary.
