Frequently Asked Questions
Is a printed consent form legally valid?
Yes. Legal validity comes from proper informed consent — clear language, disclosure of risks, patient understanding, and signatures of patient, doctor and witness. The tool renders the correct format.
Can I edit the risks paragraph for a specific patient?
Yes — every risk/benefit paragraph is editable in place before you download the PDF.
Does the form support Indian regional languages?
The English version prints from the tool. For bilingual output, upgrade to the full clinic system which has Hindi and regional templates.
Are the consent forms stored on your server?
No — everything runs in your browser. No patient data leaves the device.
Who can sign as a witness?
Any adult independent of the treating team — a family member, hospital staff not directly involved in the procedure, or a bystander. Doctor and witness signatures should be separate.
Can a minor sign their own consent?
No. For patients under 18, a parent or legal guardian must sign; the minor's assent is documented separately.
