Legally adequate informed consent necessitates a thorough discussion of treatment options and risks and proper documentation.

The data were collected through personal interviews using a proposed informed consent score. The interviews were held after obtaining the informed consent and before the index procedure. Patients were asked to describe their diagnosis, the surgical procedure, its\u2019 benefits, and risks as well as alternative treatments.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Mean age differed significantly between elective and trauma group patients (66.1 vs. 51.6, respectively, p &lt; 0.01), while gender and education level were comparable ( p = 0.075, p = 0.55, respectively). The quality of consent was significantly better for patients with post-high-school education compared to elementary education level (consent score: 16.9 \u00b1 4.1 vs. 12.2 \u00b1 5.5, p = 0.021). Patients in the elective group showed an overall higher quality of consent, as reflected by a mean score of 17.03 \u00b1 4.2 versus a mean score of only 13.73 \u00b1 4.7 in the trauma group ( p = 0.005, 95% CI: 1.02\u20135.57). Specifically, trauma patients demonstrated a lower comprehension of the diagnosis, the benefits of surgical treatment, the possible complications, and the expected postoperative course.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients undergoing trauma surgery are significantly more likely to have an inadequate understanding of the proposed treatment.
