Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Patients' Bill of Rights includes a list of patient rights, including the right to receive information about their medical treatment, including whether it is experimental. This document is often published by hospitals as a way to inform patients of their rights. Informed Consent Forms typically focus on a specific treatment or procedure and may or may not include information about whether it is experimental. Patients' Medical History, Evidence-Based Medicine, and Practice Guidelines do not specifically address the issue of experimental medical treatments.
