Bioethics for clinicians: 1. Consent [correction]

Canadian Medical Association Journal 1996; 155: 368

In this article by Dr. Edward Etchells and associates (CMAJ 1996; 155: 177-80) an incorrect reference was given for the definition of "therapeutic privilege" (page 179, column 2, paragraph 4). The relevant reference is as follows: Meisel A, Roth LH, Lidz CW. Toward a model of the legal doctrine of informed consent. Am J Psychiatry 1977;134:285-9. We apologize for this error. -- Ed.
