consent form
Signed authorization paper
A consent form is a document that someone signs to indicate they agree to something—typically a medical procedure, research participation, or release of information.
The form explains what will happen and acknowledges that the person understands the risks involved: Please sign the consent form before your surgery.
Consent forms create a legal record of informed agreement.
