Abstract (English)  :

EDITOR,--John N Lunn comments, "Consent for anaesthesia is different from consent for surgical or medical treatment because cooperative effort is not required. In order to be anaesthetised patients have to do very little." It is precisely because anaesthetised patients are helpless and unable to defend their personal boundaries that it is important to obtain their consent for all procedures while they are conscious.

In relation to the case reported by John Mitchell, clinical jargon euphemistically camouflages the truth, which is that a man put his finger in a women’s vagina without her consent. Most women would understand that as assault, and for it to happen "patients have to do very little."
