Abstract:
The right of a patient to self-determination is a right to non-intervention; a right to take a decision on his life, by precluding the others' control. The patient's personality independence is physical and mental immunity when health care is delivered. In practice, this right Is exercised through the principle of informed consent (1С). To adapt 1С to the specific pediatric task, attention should be drawn: to the form of providing information to parents and their child; individual deviation from a general form; 1С as the parents' obligations; 1С as a document - status, coverage; cases when it is necessary to get a child's approval for the manipulations to be performed. The paper considers whether it is expedient to strengthen the fixed minimum information standard by statutory acts for each specific clinical case by the example of diabetes mellitus in pediatric care.
