病人預計進行手術，護理師在知情同意過程中的角色為何？
A client is scheduled for surgery. What is the nurse's role in the informed consent process?
- AExplain the risks and benefits of the surgery解釋手術的風險與益處
- BWitness the client's signature on the document✓ 正解見證病人在文件上的簽名
- CComplete the consent form for the client為病人填寫同意書
- DDecide on behalf of the client if they are hesitant若病人猶豫不決，代表病人做出決定
知情同意（Informed consent）是醫師的責任，醫師必須解釋手術的風險、益處及替代方案。護理師在其中的法律角色是「見證者」（Witness）。護理師需確認病人簽署時意識清醒、無被脅迫，並評估病人對手術內容是否有基本認知，若發現病人仍有疑問，護理師應聯繫醫師重新解釋，而非由護理師代為說明或簽署。
Informed consent is the physician's responsibility; the physician must explain the risks, benefits, and alternatives of the surgery. The nurse's legal role in this process is that of a witness. The nurse must confirm that the patient is alert and not under coercion when signing and must assess whether the patient has a basic understanding of the surgery. If the patient still has questions, the nurse should contact the physician for further explanation rather than providing the explanation or signing on the patient's behalf.
