Implicit and general consent (beauchamp & childress: test cases: implicit and general consent, case: pelvic examination by medical trainees (sogc-apog, test cases: presumed consent. Beauchamp & childress complexities in respecting autonomy. They looked at tough cases for informed consent. Varieties of informed consent: explicit consent: this has been the focus of our discussion.

Perhaps token consent is also a part by which a clear yes or no is given. The idea is that seeing the sign and you reading it, you understand that there will be medical students involved in your care if you continue your appointment. The idea is that you can walk out if you want to seek care elsewhere. )
