Overview
You are part of a research team studying the safety of a new medical device to be used on human beings. Your role is to obtain the informed consent of potential study enrollees, explaining to potential study enrollees the risks and benefits of the study and any available alternatives to using the new medical device. You encounter a potential study enrollee who indicates that he wants to participate in the study but does not wish to read the materials, including the consent form, nor hear from you a description of the study and other important information. The potential study enrollee simply asks, “Where do I sign?” How should you proceed? What ethical principles are involved?
