It was a diagnostic challenge because, for patients older than 50 years with cardiovascular risk factors, ischaemic mononeuropathy is the most frequent aetiology.

In the medicolegal realm, failure to meet the accepted standards of consent can be considered as medical negligence which has both legal and professional implications. In general, valid consent requires three core components: (1) the presence of mental capacity - characterised by the patient's ability to comprehend, retain information, weigh options and communicate the decision, (2) adequate information disclosure - based on the 'reasonable physician' or 'reasonable patient' standards and (3) voluntariness in decision-making. Nonetheless, in real-world clinical settings, informed consent is not always optimally achieved, due to various patient, contextual and systemic factors. In this article, I herein discuss three major challenges to informed consent in clinical practice: (1) patient literacy and sociocultural factors, (2) psychiatric illnesses and elderly patients with cognitive impairment and (3) artificial intelligence in clinical care, and sought to offer practical mitigating strategies to address these barriers.</p>","PeriodicalId":46606,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140857731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even as these findings were made known, a 100-mg dose of thalidomide was in general use as a sleep aid for pregnant women.
