有效知情同意（Informed Consent）的核心要素包括：完整告知風險與效益、說明替代方案、病人必須出於自願同意，且病人必須具備理解決策的能力。醫師負有解釋責任，護理師通常擔任見證簽名角色，而非執行者簽名。
The core elements of valid informed consent include: full disclosure of risks and benefits, explanation of alternatives, voluntary consent by the client, and the client's capacity to understand the decision. The physician is responsible for the explanation, while the nurse typically serves as a witness to the signature rather than as the one obtaining consent.
