Thanks for pointing that out, Valerie. Hadn't thought I'd that angle—we normally refer to Article 6 of the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights

Article 6

Consent

1. Any preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic medical intervention is only to be carried out with the prior, free and informed consent of the person concerned, based on adequate information. The consent should, where appropriate, be express and may be withdrawn by the person concerned at any time and for any reason without disadvantage or prejudice.
