The goal of the informed consent process is intended to lead either the patient or the research subject to make an informed (educated) and voluntary choice. That is to choose whether or not to have a particular clinical treatment/operation or whether or not to choose to participate in a research study that may or may not be of specific benefit to him or her. The goal of this chapter is to review the now well-defined informed consent process for both clinical treatment and research involving human subjects and then examine the process in the context of clinical surgical innovation.
