✅ Separate consent is required for each procedure.

⚠️ Exception: Only when an unauthorized procedure is essential to save life or preserve health.

📝 Important Medicolegal Tips
A well-documented Discharge Summary is more than a formality—it’s legal protection and patient safety combined.

✅ Must include:

✔️Chief complaints & reason for admission
✔️Investigations & treatment given
✔️Course in hospital & condition at discharge
✔️Clear instructions: medicines, diet, lifestyle
✔️Emergency contact details

⚠️ Remember: If a patient fails to follow discharge instructions, it may be considered contributory negligence.

💬 Your body speaks louder than words!

93% of success depends on nonverbal communication—your gestures, expressions, and body language. 🤯

In healthcare, nonverbal cues are vital for patient trust, clear communication, and even medico-legal safety. 🩺 Understanding and using them correctly can make all the difference in care and outcomes.

🚨 Emergency Patients in OPD 🚨

In case of very sick patients in OPD:

👉 Timely action saves lives!

🩺 Consent in OPD Practice – Know the Difference

✅ For routine OPD visits, implied consent is sufficient.
⚠️ But when it comes to OPD procedures like pleural/ascitic tap, wound stitching, or catheterization, the rules change:

✔ A separate informed consent must be taken
✔ Signed by patient, doctor & witness
✔ Carefully preserved for records

👉 Always ensure proper documentation—it safeguards both patients and doctors.

⚖️ What a Complainant Must Prove in Negligence Cases

In medical negligence disputes, the complainant must establish these key points:

✔ Duty of care – Doctor/hospital had a responsibility towards the patient
✔ Breach of duty – That responsibility was not upheld
✔ Damage to patient – Harm or injury occurred
✔ Direct link – The damage was directly caused by the breach

📌 These elements form the foundation of proving negligence in court.
