  1. What does coercion in intensive care mean for patients and their relatives? A thematic qualitative study.Nicola Biller-Andorno, Bara Ricou, Rouven Porz, Corine Mouton Dorey & Susanne Jöbges - 2022 - BMC Medical Ethics 23 (1):1-15.
    BackgroundThe need for an ethical debate about the use of coercion in intensive care units (ICU) may not be as obvious as in other areas of medicine, such as psychiatry. Coercive measures are often necessary to treat critically ill patients in the ICU. It is nevertheless important to keep these measures to a minimum in order to respect the dignity of patients and the cohesion of the clinical team. A deeper understanding of what patients and their relatives perceive during their (...)

  • Sharing decisions amid uncertainties: a qualitative interview study of healthcare professionals’ ethical challenges and norms regarding decision-making in gender-affirming medical care.Bert C. Molewijk, Fijgje de Boer, Baudewijntje P. C. Kreukels, Marijke A. Bremmer, Casper Martens & Karl Gerritse - 2022 - BMC Medical Ethics 23 (1):1-17.
    BackgroundIn gender-affirming medical care (GAMC), ethical challenges in decision-making are ubiquitous. These challenges are becoming more pressing due to exponentially increasing referrals, politico-legal contestation, and divergent normative views regarding decisional roles and models. Little is known, however, about what ethical challenges related to decision-making healthcare professionals (HCPs) themselves face in their daily work in GAMC and how these relate to, for example, the subjective nature of Gender Incongruence (GI), the multidisciplinary character of GAMC and the role HCPs play in assessing (...)

  • Ethics of recommending weight loss in older adults: A case study.Christine Marie Mills - 2023 - Clinical Ethics 18 (1):120-127.
    Healthcare professionals may confront ethical issues in practice, particularly when their values conflict with that of their patients or clients. This paper explores an ethical case study in which a dietitian who practices Health at Every Size® has an older adult client who wishes to lose weight. The dietitian believes that losing weight is inappropriate for this client. Using a framework for ethical decision making, this article explores the problem or dilemma, identifies the potential issues involved, discusses the relevant ethical (...)

  • Art of accepting the ‘least bad’ death.Trisha M. Prentice - 2021 - Journal of Medical Ethics 47 (4):225-226.
    That which constitutes a ‘good death’, or dying well, has long been of interest to philosophers and clinicians alike. While difficult to define due to its deeply personal nature and dependency on spiritual and cultural beliefs and past experiences, Wilkinson1 has drawn parallels from art and music to consider key ethical components. Few in clinical practice would dispute that a ‘good death’ is one that does not rob the person of a valuable life, is aligned with the preferences of the (...)

  • (1 other version)Complexity, complicity and moral distress in nursing.Settimio Monteverde - 2019 - Ethik in der Medizin 31 (4):345-360.
    Professionelles Handeln bedarf moralischen Handlungsvermögens. Im Kontext pflegerischer Weiterbildungen beschreibt der Philosoph Andrew Jameton vor über drei Jahrzehnten psychologische Reaktionen auf kompromittiertes moralisches Handlungsvermögen, die er als moralischen Stress definiert. Diese Standarddefinition hat in der Pflegewissenschaft zu einer dichten Forschung geführt und zum Vorschlag einer weiten Definition. Belegt sind gravierende Folgen von moralischem Stress auf die Patientensicherheit und auf die psychische Gesundheit von Mitarbeitenden. Der Beitrag diskutiert die Rezeption des Konzepts innerhalb der Pflegewissenschaft und die jüngst vorgeschlagene weite Definition von (...)

  • The role of bioethics services in paediatric intensive care units: a qualitative descriptive study.Denise Alexander, Mary Quirke, Jo Greene, Lorna Cassidy, Carol Hilliard & Maria Brenner - 2024 - BMC Medical Ethics 25 (1):1-12.
    Background There is considerable variation in the functionality of bioethical services in different institutions and countries for children in hospital, despite new challenges due to increasing technology supports for children with serious illness and medical complexity. We aimed to understand how bioethics services address bioethical concerns that are increasingly encountered in paediatric intensive care. Methods A qualitative descriptive design was used to describe clinician’s perspectives on the functionality of clinical bioethics services for paediatric intensive care units. Clinicians who were members (...)
