Should patient be told about all the complications and dangers of the treatment and surgery?. As per the guidelines in certain countries only side effects which can occur in 10% of the patients or more should be told. And in some other countries side effects which can occur in 1-10% of patients should be told......BUT WHAT ABOUT COMPLICATIONS WHICH HAVE LESS THAN 1% OF INCIDENCE.....
WILL THERE BE INCREASE IN ANXIETY IN PATIENT WHICH CAN HARM WHEN PATIENT IS ON OPERATING TABLE
Note......not every patient is operated in general anaesthia.....some times patient is awake ....
