5. A 9-month-old with glaucoma requires surgery. The inabfiarbn.cto'ms/tepsat rents are

divorced. To obtain informed consent, which action would be most appropriate?
v v v v v v v v v v v
A. Contacting the father for informed consent v v v v v
B. Obtaining informed consent from the mother v v v v v
C. Seeking a court ruling on the course of care
v v v v v v v v
D. Determining sole or joint custody by the parents v v v v v v v
Answer: D v
Rationale: The most appropriate action would be to determine legal custody by court decree. If the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
parents have joint custody, then either parent may give consent, but it is always best to have consent
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
given by ba boi rtbh. c opma/ t erset nts. The parent with only physical custody may give consent for
v v v
v v v v v v v
v v v v v v v v v v
emergency care. The last resort is
v v v v v v
getting a court ruling; usually this is not necessary unless the parents disagree about the care of the child.
