    Summary

    Patient consent for video recording of medical consultations is low, even with non-coercive methods. This study found only a 10% consent rate, questioning ethical practices in research.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Patient Consent
    • Research Ethics

    Background:

    • Video recording of medical consultations is a valuable tool for training and research.
    • Previous studies have faced challenges in obtaining adequate patient consent for video recording.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine patient consent rates for video recording of consultations.
    • To assess the effectiveness of non-coercive methods for obtaining consent.

    Main Methods:

    • Two studies were conducted in a Scottish semi-rural training practice.
    • Study 1: Patients returning to reception after receiving explanatory letters were asked for consent (n=273).
    • Study 2: Patients were directly handed explanatory letters and asked for consent (n=830).

    Main Results:

    • Study 1 yielded a consent rate of 22% (61/273 patients).
    • Study 2 resulted in a consent rate of 6% (48/830 patients).
    • The combined consent rate across both studies was 10%.

    Conclusions:

    • The low overall consent rate suggests that non-coercive methods may not significantly improve participation.
    • The findings raise ethical concerns regarding the methods used to obtain consent for video recording in research.
    • Further research is needed to explore effective and ethical strategies for patient consent in video-recorded studies.
