The controversial practice now prompting some doctors to call for change our investigation, next now to our nbc news investigation. Millions of patients may have been subjected to unauthorized pelvic exams while undergoing surgery. Many never even found out. But now, as Stephanie Gosk reports, some doctors are sounding the alarm about this controversial practice reporter surgery can be daunting. Patients put their lives in doctors hands. Does a patient have the right to know what happens to them when they are under anesthesia yeah. Absolutely absolutely reporter but according to doctors and medical students nbc news spoke with, sometimes Surgery Patients are given one of the most intimate procedures without their explicit consent. A pelvic exam. On the surface of it, it seems like a violation of medical ethics is it . I would say its a violation of bodily autonomy, certainly. Reporter it may sound surprising, but dr. Julie chor, an ob gyn, says the practice has been around for awhile. Although exact numbers are hard to pin down, because patients are often unaware, a recent study estimates that more than 3. 5 million men and women may have received an unconsented intimate exam within the past five years dr. Chor says the examines can be a key part of residents training, and may be performed during surge rips because it is easier, even if the patient doesnt actually need the procedure. Muscles of the abdomen are more relaxed, so you can actually act appreciate the anatomy in kind of an easier way. Reporter but consent should be mandatory, she says i was asked to do a pelvic exam on a patient that i know i hadnt consented, specifically reporter did you want to do it . You know, no, i did not. Reporter this doctor is the head of the american medical student association. I actually ended up saying no, i wasnt going to perform this Pelvic Exam Reporter she is among a number of medical students who are speaking out its just morally wrong. If you were in that to sigts position, would you want that happening to you . Reporter attention to the issue has led to 25 states enacting laws requiring explicit consent for pelvic exams on a patient under anesthesia the American College of obstetricians and gynecologists states that if the exam offers a patient no personal benefit and is performed solely for teaching purposes, it should be performed only with her specific informed consent some doctors have resisted the need for specific consent, arguing its not necessary if general consent is given before going into the Operating Room and the pelvis doesnt need to be treated differently than any other part of the body but dr. Chor disagrees. Because if you ask a patient how they feel, and whether they would want to know if a student was doing an examine, patients overwhelmingly say, yes, this is different. Reporter and she says doctors should listen because patients think its different, i think its imperative that we treat it differently. Reporter Stephanie Gosk, nbc news, chicago.
