The Supreme Court's determination on Montgomery (AP) (Appellant) v Lanarkshire Health Board (Respondent) (Scotland) [2015] clarified UK law on consent. It is for the informed patient to determine which intervention, if any, they will undergo. All doctors must meet this standard and may need to reassess their practice to do so.
最高法院对蒙哥马利(上诉人)诉拉纳克郡卫生委员会(被上诉人)(苏格兰)[2015]案的裁决明确了英国关于同意的法律。应由充分知情的患者来决定他们将接受何种干预措施(如有)。所有医生都必须达到这一标准,可能需要重新评估自己的诊疗行为以做到这一点。
