SOLVED3265
A patient gives permission for a blood transfusion necessary for surgery on the condition that the blood comes from family donated blood. After the patient is unconscious the hospital realizes that it cannot locate the family donated blood, so it uses other blood. The plaintiff contracts a blood borne illness and sues for battery. Can the defendant successfully claim consent as a defense? 3 options: a) Yes, because the patient consented to a blood transfusion. b) No, because the blood transfusion exceeded the scope of the consent. c) Yes because the patient provided implied consent by not objecting to non-family blood being used. d) No, because the consent involved an illegal activity.
