Fiz uma TAC sem explicação,
I had a CT scan without explanation,
Sem conhecer alternativas ou implicações.
Without knowing alternatives or implications.
Só mais tarde ouvi falar da ressonância,
Only later did I hear about MRI,
Mais informação, menos radiação, outra circunstância.
More information, less radiation, another circumstance.
Não digo que a primeira escolha estivesse errada,
I'm not saying the first choice was wrong,
Mas faltou-me informação antes da decisão tomada.
But I lacked information before the decision was made.
E se tivesse conhecido as opções disponíveis,
What if I had known the available options,
Seriam as minhas escolhas também diferentes?
Would my choices have been different too?
Noutra ocasião, pediram-me uma assinatura,
On another occasion, they asked me for a signature,
Com uma fila à espera, pouca margem para leitura.
With a queue waiting, little room for reading.
Assinalei que não queria contraste no exame,
I marked that I didn't want contrast in the exam,
Mas na sala tentaram mudar a minha vontade.
But in the room, they tried to change my will.
Consentir não é apenas assinar um papel,
Consenting is not just signing a paper,
É poder dizer que não, sem pressão de ninguém.
It's being able to say no, without pressure from anyone.
Se a recusa não é respeitada na prática,
If refusal is not respected in practice,
A liberdade do consentimento torna-se problemática.
The freedom of consent becomes problematic.
No dentista, radiografias sem explicação,
At the dentist, X-rays without explanation,
Comecei a perguntar antes de cada intervenção.
I started asking before each intervention.
Pedi proteção, aceitaram prontamente,
I asked for protection, they readily accepted,
Mas por que não surgiu essa preocupação inicialmente?
But why didn't that concern arise initially?
Nem todos têm conhecimentos para questionar,
Not everyone has the knowledge to question,
Nem confiança ou coragem para recusar.
Nor the confidence or courage to refuse.
A participação não pode depender da insistência,
Participation cannot depend on insistence,
Informar o paciente também é competência.
Informing the patient is also competence.
Nos estágios comecei a observar
In internships, I started observing
Linguagem demasiado técnica, difícil de acompanhar.
Overly technical language, difficult to follow.
Familiares sem condições para compreender,
Family members unable to understand,
Idosos e debilitados sem saber o que vai acontecer.
Elderly and debilitated without knowing what will happen.
Ao início, estas situações causavam-me espanto,
Initially, these situations astonished me,
Falava com colegas, questionava tanto.
I talked to colleagues, questioned so much.
Mas, semana após semana, comecei a notar
But, week after week, I started to notice
Que aquilo que me chocava deixou de me impressionar.
That what shocked me no longer impressed me.
Será que esquecemos aquilo que aprendemos?
Do we forget what we learned?
Ou deixamos de ver as vezes em que não o fazemos?
Or do we stop seeing the times we don't do it?
Talvez o maior risco não seja esquecer a teoria,
Perhaps the greatest risk is not forgetting the theory,
Mas deixar de reconhecer quando falha na prática do dia a dia.
But ceasing to recognize when it fails in daily practice.
