Informed Consent for User Comprehension
Contents
Motivation and Background
The consent form for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is more than 17 pages long. In order for a patient to have a procedure of IVF they must fully understand the risks associated with the IVF procedure. This project will try to present the IVF consent form information in a more appealing format. The hope is that giving the patients a website to view and interact with the consent form material rather than just reading the text on a paper consent form, they will better understand the process and risks of an IVF procedure.
