Every citizen has the right to express their consent or refusal regarding treatments proposed by healthcare personnel. This is the fundamental right to self-determination in healthcare decisions.
Informed consent is the expression of the patient’s will, authorizing healthcare professionals to perform diagnostic and/or therapeutic preocedures after the patient has been adequately informed. It also ensures the patient’s active participation in decisions concerning their health.
The patient — and, if authoried, their family members — have the right to receive comprehensive information about the condition, the proposed treatment, and the healthcare professionals involved, in order to make well-informed decisions.
According to the Civil Code, parental responsibility for children, until they reach the age of majority or emancipation, is exercised jointly by both parents (even if divorced or separated)- If one parent is deceased, has lost or been suspended from from parental responsibility, or is otherwise incapacitated, the responsability is exercised solely by the other parent.
For routine medical treatments, the consent of only one parent is sufficient, in line with the general principle that ordinary administrative acts may be carried out independently by each parent.
If the presence of both parents is required, and one parent is abroad or absent for serious reasons, it is possible to proceed by filling out the MD GOP form 006“Substitute declaration of affidavit, Article 47 of Presidential Decree 18/12/2000 No. 445”.
In the case of recurring services or those that do not require the signing of informed consent, if the parents are unable to accompany the minor for the medical service, they must sign the MD GOP form 007“Authorization for accompanying a minor for non-invasive/routine healthcare services”.
The physician prescribing a venous blood test for the detection of anti-HIV antibodies is required to inform the patient and obtain consent by having the appropriate form signed. The result of this test will be included in the patient’s Medical Record only if specific consent has been provided.
A patient who is incapable of understanding and willing may not be able to provide informed consent for the medical procedure, as they lack the necessary capacity to validly express their will.
In such cases, there are legal provisions in place to protect adults (or emancipated minors), which allow for the appointment of a legal representative by a judge. These representatives (such as a guardian, curator, or support administrator) may fully or partially act on behalf of the incapacitated individual.
