Abstract
Two ethical principles, autonomy and veracity, underpin the imperative to inform and explain the risks of medical interven-tions to patients, but are not the only principles guiding clinical practice. They often conflict with the more traditional principles of beneficence and non-maleficience. ‘Informing’ patients can cause anxiety and uncertainty, undermining previously trusting therapeutic relationships.
