Informed consent poses ethical and moral obligations for all physicians. Substantial liability and related financial risks to the provider can result from any surgery, as well as medical outcomes with profound, unfortunate consequences for patients and caregivers. Anesthesiologists and other anesthesia providers, surgeons, and anyone else involved in decision-making surrounding the use of anesthesia can find themselves exposed to legal or disciplinary action if they do not take pre-operative patient discussions seriously.
