“…Ethical and moral norms are also often compatible with each other, but not in other cases, such as when one of the parents, under pressure from the family, offers to donate his or her organs, even if it is very unlikely that their child will continue alive 20 ; or in the conflicts that arise between the "mature minor" and his or her family members or health and social care professionals 21,22 . Other problems may result from the confrontation between moral systems with incompatible practices and "world views", such as those as those that are pointed out on the traditional medicine exercise and Western scientific medicine, a reality that is very present in Latin America 23,24 .…”

“…From this approach it is considered that, just as it happens with the adult person, the informed consent of the minor would constitute the maximum expression and effectuation of his or her autonomy. It is then stated that children's maturity is measured by the formal capacity to judge and assess situations and problems that are posed, not for the content itself of the assumed values 21,22,31 .…”

Resumen Este trabajo tiene como objetivo ofrecer un acercamiento a la bioética infantil en el mundo iberoamericano. Partimos del estatus diferenciado del menor respecto de otros estadios evolutivos así como del desarrollo histórico de la bioética en el espacio iberoamericano. Primero, se presenta una propuesta para clasificar los principales asuntos susceptibles de ser considerados por la bioética infantil iberoamericana. A continuación, se discuten los principales problemas y conflictos de la bioética infantil en función de las normas bioéticas, biomorales o biopolíticas implicadas. Esta cuestión se ejemplifica con el debate sobre el trabajo infantil y con el debate entre una bioética autonomista o paternalista. Así mismo, se proponen dos criterios generales de actuación que comprometen a las políticas públicas en favor de la infancia. Se finaliza destacando que la bioética infantil merece un espacio destacado y diferenciado dentro de la bioética llevada a cabo desde Iberoamérica.

“…The minor who shows maturity to make a decision regarding their participation in research or treatment, could mean an ethical issue for those who take informed consent, which requires the clinical professional or researcher prudence not to underestimate the autonomy of the child (Lyon, 1987), but also, the obligation to apply the regulations of each country that describes when the child becomes an adult. To consider that a underage person is mature, he must verify an understanding of the scope and meaning of his actions (Blázquez, 2014).…”

It is necessary to recognize the child as an active moral subject in making decision process related to his health or his participation in research. The taking of informed consent as a communication process should tend to respect the autonomy and dignity of the child considered mature or not, taking their decisions seriously and not just an assent as a normative principle of mere legal aspect. It describes theoretical elements that can be used as tools to have an approach to the moral development of the child from the principle of responsibility according to the degree of emancipation. The objective is to provide a description of the most relevant aspects about the informed consent process in the mature child and their right to be informed to agree or consent. We searched the databases such as: PROQUEST, MEDLINE, LILACS and PUBMED, analyzing 51 articles. For the organization of the information, the SLIDING methodology was used: sort, label, integrate and prioritize. It was concluded that the ability to assent of the child considered mature or not should be evaluated under objective parameters and not simply under the perception of the doctor or researcher. Finally, it is necessary to design strategies to promote the autonomy, respect and dignity of the child based on the same practices at the time of informed consent.
