| Abstract (English): | A child is a developing human being, NOT a small adult. Just as they do not have the final height they will reach over the years, they do not have the capacity and autonomy they will achieve in adulthood, and they are persons with the dignity, rights, and principles of human beings. Informed Consent originated in the legal environment in a health-related lawsuit in 1914, while Assent was not considered until 1977. An adult's consent requires their full understanding. Informed Assent also requires that the child be competent to assent. Appelbaum and Grisso's competency approach is analyzed, as well as the results of studies that identify when a child is competent to assent. In conclusion, the advantages and challenges of Assent in research and clinical care are illustrated. In research involving children, a pediatrician and, ideally, a psychologist should always be involved. Informed consent in pediatrics should be understood as a continuous decision-making process centered on a tripartite relationship. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): | El niño es un ser humano en desarrollo, NO un adulto pequeño. Así como no tiene la estatura final que alcanzará con los años, tampoco tiene la capacidad y autonomía que logrará en la edad adulta, pero ya es una persona con la dignidad, derechos y principios de los seres humanos. El Consentimiento Informado se originó en el ambiente jurídico por una demanda en tema de salud desde 1914, en tanto que el Asentimiento se empieza a considerar hasta 1977. El Consentimiento de un adulto requiere su cabal comprensión. El Asentimiento informado también, por lo que requerimos que el niño tenga competencias para ello. Se revisa el tema de desarrollo psicológico y moral con los enfoques de Piaget, Kohlberg, Erickson y Gilligan. Se analiza la aproximación de las competencias de Appelbaum y Grisso, así como los resultados de estudios que identifican cuando el niño tiene la competencia para asentir. Como conclusión se ilustran las ventajas y los retos del Asentimiento en investigación y atención clínica. En investigación en niños, siempre debe participar un pediatra e idealmente un/a psicólogo/a. El asentimiento informado en pediatri'a debe entenderse como un proceso continuo de toma de decisiones, centrado en una relacio'n tripartita: Padre o Madre - Medico - Infante.
