6. a woman is brought into an emergency room after a severe automobile accident. she's unconscious and badly injured. her husband arrives at the emergency room at the same time as she arrives in the ambulance. the doctor explains the wife's condition to her husband and asks for permission to operate on her. the husband agrees to the operation. the husband's approval for the operation is called consent.

Implied consent.

Explanation:

Implied consent refers to an authorization that is not directly granted by the individual who will suffer the consequences of the authorization. That is, an implicit consent is one that is given by a person who will not suffer the consequences, but the person who will suffer the consequences cannot authorize anything. An example of this can be seen in the question above where it is necessary for someone to authorize the surgery of a woman who is unconscious.

The woman does not need the surgery, and she is the one who will suffer the consequences of this, but she is unable to authorize it. then her husband authorizes through implicit consent.
