Informed consent plays an important role in the doctor-patient relationship.It is the core and most basic medical ethical principle,which is accompanied by the development of the doctor-patient relationship and the patient’s rights awareness.On the one hand,it demonstrates humanistic care for patients,on the other hand,it also demonstrates the maintenance of individual personality and dignity of patients.In the traditional relationship between doctors and patients,doctors rely on a "kind-heartness" to practice medicine,patients’ personalities cannot be respected,interests cannot be guaranteed,and autonomy cannot be reflected.With the continuous progress of human history,this relationship between doctors and patients is constantly changing,and medical ethics has gradually formed the principles of respect,advantage,and autonomy.The relationship between doctors and patients has begun to empower patients,and the concept of informed consent is gradually developing.The summary of human history and lessons has formed the principle of informed consent based on the principles of respect,benefit,and autonomy.The principle of informed consent mainly means that the medical party has the obligation to inform,and the patient has the right to understand his own condition and choose medical methods.The premise of consent is to be informed.Only patients who know their condition can agree and choose the next treatment plan.While protecting the rights of patients,the principle of informed consent can also promote the harmonious development of the doctor-patient relationship.At present,there are frequent conflicts between doctors and patients in our country,and malignant injuries occur from time to time.The author believes that the main reason for this situation is that the principle of informed consent is not implemented in place,which harms the rights and interests of patients.Patients do not understand their rights,they do not have a proper understanding of the disease,and they have misunderstood the doctor’s treatment.At the same time,the doctors are not active and proactive when informing,and ignore the patient’s right to informed consent.The lack of informed consent has also led to mistrust between the doctor and the patient.Not only did the patient spend a lot of time and financial costs during the medical treatment,but because of some worries,they could not put all their body and mind into the treatment process because they were worried Being deceived and cheated,the doctor prescribed unnecessary drugs and treatments.The conflicts between doctors and patients that medical staff may have in the course of practicing medicine,in turn,make their belief in practicing medicine to save people suffer.The implementation of informed consent can effectively improve and ease the current tension between doctors and patients,re-establish trust between doctors and patients,and form a benign,friendly and interactive situation between doctors and patients.This article believes that building a harmonious doctor-patient relationship requires innovation in the implementation of informed consent,as well as the maintenance of the law on the principle of informed consent,but the most important thing is to make informed consent the moral consciousness of both doctors and patients.Strengthen the morality of responsibility of medical staff,internalize the concept of "peopleoriented" in the heart and externalize the practice;improve the moral cultivation of both doctors and patients,so that doctors’ s practice and patients’ seeking medical care become the pursuit of "goodness";strengthen effective communication between doctors and patients and medical services.The staff’s humanistic care for the patient makes the patient’s psychological and emotional comfort.This article explores the model of informed consent,trying to put forward some new points of view,on this basis,discusses the positive effect of the principle of informed consent on the construction of a harmonious doctor-patient relationship,and also expounds the role of law in maintaining the principle of informed consent.Hoping it helps improve the relationship between doctors and patients in our country and promote the construction of a harmonious relationship of doctors and patients.
