Strong correlation between proper training and patient safety
• Dutch study reported that 18% of malpractice claims related to accidents only 6% were from properly consented patients
(Wind et al., 2007)
• appropriate consent form derives from the knowledge, skills and experience of the surgeon
• for complicated cases an additional consent form should be signed based on the individual case
• proper and objective patient counselling prior to surgery is the result of surgeons’ education and training
• being aware of potential complications and the realistic estimation of treatment rate of success
• indisputable that CME and CPD is the responsibility of each individual doctor and should be the driving force to excellence
