paragraphs (1) said that informed consent is approval of medical action which is given
by the patient or his immediate family after obtaining a complete explanation about

results of research found that from 194 respondents there were 120 respondents (61.9%)
who had a low level of understanding, there were 119 (63.1%) respondents who received
incomplete information about approval of medical action. Based on the result of
bivariate analysis found that there was a significant relationship between completeness
