"... the study is right to point out that these are people going through a traumatic time in their lives. So perhaps they aren't as focused on the informed consent form rhetoric because they are fighting for their lives. Go figure."

"The goal of the informed consent process is to provide people with sufficient information for making informed choices.

The informed consent form provides a summary of the clinical study and the individual's rights as a research participant. It serves as a starting point for the necessary exchange of information between the investigator and potential research participant. This template for the informed consent form is only one part of the larger process of informed consent. "
