Description

This shiur, which follows up on an earlier shiur regarding determining a patient's capacity to provide informed consent, discusses the definition of incapacity, addresses the question of who speaks for a patient, and asks whether we use "substituted judgment" or "best interests" standards to decide on a patient's behalf.
