摘要
In the United States, patient autonomy is a strongly held ethical principle.(1) Although this right to self-determination has not always been the norm in health care, it has become the foundation for all our patient interactions, such as the standard practice of providing sufficient, understandable information to a patient before obtaining consent for treatment.(2) Most recently, this concept of autonomy has extended to the practice of telling patients the truth about their diagnoses and prognoses.(3)
