stipulated that information about the patient&#39;s condition must be &#8220;complete and continuous&#8221; and include &#8220;diagnostic and prognostic information and treatment alternatives&#46;&#8221; Court rulings later clarified those statements and the concept of informed consent gradually took root as society came to understand that a patient who sought medical care forfeited neither personal dignity nor inherent rights to liberty or&#44; more specifically&#44; self-determination in relation to health&#46; These are the very rights guaranteed by the Spanish Constitution&#46; In other words&#44; the patient has a right to know the medical diagnosis&#44; its implications&#44; and the treatment options so that he or she can decide what steps should be taken&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the interest of clarity and establishing the basis for these principles in law&#44;
