The aim of this study is presenting the regulations concerning patient’s consent. The respect for the subjectivity of the patient and recognizing his/her possibility for autonomous deciding on his/her own person are essential when speaking about patient’s consent. The issue of the patient’s consent on medical activity to be performed should be considered in the category of human rights as for the possibility of the self-determination and making independent decisions. Introducing of this notion into the legal system, of the so-called informed consent or conscious consent, was justified with the respect to the personal inviolability and the autonomy of the individual.
