Informed Consent is required to avoid legal suits from the Patient before Hernia Surgery with Mesh!!!

Every surgeon and the hospital now should take an informed consent in writing from the patient before his surgery of hernia repair with mesh.The consent should mention that mesh is a foreign body, it is a piece of synthetic cloth and it is associated with possible complications of a foreign body. Otherwise, the doctors and hospitals may have to face legal suits in future filed by the patients for the damages!!!!

Mesh is widely used in hernia surgery all over the world. Many patients are not aware that it is a foreign body and they give general consent for surgery as advised by their doctor because of faith in him. Patient feels that the doctor would not do anything that is harmful to him. This faith is being used by the mesh manufacturing companies to market and sale their product at any cost without bothering much for the harmful consequences patient may face in future due to known foreign body complications. But now patients are becoming more and more aware from the internet that mesh is a foreign body, a simple piece of synthetic cloth naturally associated with many foreign body complications. So it is now necessary as prevention of future legal complications that every surgeon and the hospital should take an informed consent in writing that the mesh is a foreign body prepared of synthetic threads like cloth and may cause harm to him due to well-known foreign body complications. OTHERWISE, patient may file a legal suit against the surgeons or the hospital and may claim for huge damages!!!
