description Informed consent is one of the patient's basic rights, which contains several patient's prerogatives. Through informed consent the patient has a right to be informed about the character and seriousness of his condition, the risks of proposed therapv or medical treatment. He also has the right to know about the alternative or experimental medical procedures and theraphies against the patients condition. Before the very recent The Patients' Rights Protection Act of 2004., legislation on informal consent in Croatia was rather general. With the recent the Patients' Rights Protection Act, despite the hope the new legislation would increase the quality of the patients' right protection in Croatia, the situation, unfortunatellv, didn't change for the better. This paper intention is to describe the current informal consent legislative, and also existing problems of his practical implementation in Croatia. The author gives her views and sugestions "de lege ferenda" on how existing problems should be solved.
