Dilemma and Countermeasures of Informed Consent of Clinical Patients in Digital Medicine Era
Journal: Journal of Clinical Medicine Research DOI: 10.32629/jcmr.v6i2.4048
Abstract
This paper investigates the dilemmas and countermeasures of informed consent for clinical patients in the digital medicine era. It employs the methods of literature review, case study and comparative study.The study identifies key challenges: digital literacy gaps, algorithm opacity, legal ambiguities, and patient distrust in AI. It concludes that resolving these requires a tripartite solution: a tiered informed consent system adapted to patients’ digital capabilities, blockchain for secure data preservation, legislative updates to clarify standards, and social mechanisms like digital literacy training and AI ethics review. These measures aim to balance technological innovation with patient autonomy, ensuring ethical and secure informed consent in digital healthcare.
