Abstract:
Physiotherapists become responsible for the rehabilitation of patients in a
wide range of conditions, but the bioethical questions have not been suffi ciently
assimilated to academic studies. A cross-sectional survey was applied to both
physiotherapists and patients, related to informed consent (IC). A number of 148
physiotherapists and 397 patients participated to the study. Diff erences between
patients and physiotherapists regarding IC are discussed. Physiotherapists are
reporting less frequency than patients regarding IC obtaining both at physiotherapy
admission and physiotherapy onset, disregarding the legal demands. Patients social
aspects related to IC level of understanding investigations indicate that university
graduates’ patients have a wide perception of IC process in physiotherapy. A low
educational level was associated with disregard and overestimation of ethical
components regarding physiotherapy services.
