A linguagem e o direito médico: reflexões acerca da maneira como o consentimento livre e esclarecido é informado na relação médico-paciente

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the language process in the doctor-patient relationship, considering the application of the Informed Consent Term (ICF), since communication, a vital factor of human interaction, can frame the doctor-patient relationship in clarified or unenlightened, effective or ineffective, accessible or inaccessible. For this, we use a qualitative approach and adopt bibliographic research, since we rely on previous researches and productions on the theme to build our knowledge. It is concluded that one of the main causes that prevent the patient's consent to a medical procedure is the lack of understanding of medical terms and variations, and thus the search for linguistic equity in the implementation of the ICF promotes the patient's dignity and autonomy.
