GARCIA GOMEZ, Alberto; GARASIC, Mirko Daniel y CUBILLO DIAZ-VALDES, María. Ethical issues concerning informed consent in translational/clinical research and vaccination bias and informed consent. Med. ética [online]. 2019, vol.30, n.2, pp.605-635. Epub 21-Ago-2023. ISSN 2594-2166.
Improving the health literacy of patients in relation to medical practices and research is essential for upholding the principle of respect for autonomy-that is, respecting the patient’s ability to make self-governed choices regarding medical interventions or research participation that reflects the patient’s beliefs and values. This paper considers the challenges of informed consent (i.e. ethical gaps, barriers, and priority needs) that are unique to certain vulnerable groups, namely preadolescents, adolescents, and pregnant women, with a specific emphasis on how neurobioethical, multicultural and interreligious variables should be taken into account when assessing the appropriateness of the current documents relying on the notion of informed consent. In exploring how we are to improve the process of obtaining informed consent, this contribution pays particular attention to the relevance of bias and privacy in the debate, suggesting new ways of intervening so to reduce the effects of implicit bias.
