摘要
Informed consent is a legal doctrine designed to protect an individual from unwarranted medical intrusions upon his body. Because the processes of aging may affect the elderly subject's capacity to give competent, knowing, and voluntary consent, the securing of informed consent from the elderly will often require special procedural safeguards. These safeguards are most crucial in the research setting, where the benefits of experimentation run to society at large, while the subject bears the risks.
