Informed Consent - Gynecological Procedures
What Has Been Your Experience? (Survey)
IAWH is always happy to support up and coming public health professionals.
This survey examines women's experiences with the current informed consent process related to gynecological procedures. It will also examine attitudes to potential additions to the informed consent process including disclosure of potential physical pain and potential risks related to politicization of care. The survey was developed by American University student, Isabella Long, who worked with IAWH during her Freshman year. This survey will contribute to her advancement in the study of women's health.
