However, whether and how much clinical benefit is derived from cochlear implants varies significantly by patient and is influenced by the etiology and extent of hearing loss, medical comorbidities, and preexisting behavioral and psychosocial issues. In patients with underlying psychosis, concerns have been raised that the introduction of auditory stimuli could trigger hallucinations, worsen existing delusions, or exacerbate erratic behavior. This concern has made psychosis a relative contraindication to cochlear implant surgery. This is problematic because there is a lack of data describing this phenomenon and because the psychosocial benefits derived from improvement in auditory function may be a critical intervention for treating psychosis in some patients. The objective of this report is to provide an ethical framework for guiding clinical decision-making on cochlear implant surgery in the hearing impaired with psychosis.</p>","PeriodicalId":39646,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Ethics","volume":"35 2","pages":"101-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140904877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We assess how equality-based enrollment structures in clinical cancer research have perpetuated historical disparities and what equity-based alternatives are necessary to achieve representativeness and an expansive conception of participatory justice in clinical cancer research.

Should Providers Ask Family Members What They Want When Establishing Surrogate Decision-Making? 在确立代理决策时,医疗服务提供者是否应该询问家庭成员他们想要什么?

A potential critical problem here is some providers' approach differing from that of others. To the extent that this occurs, the results may be arbitrary, and the harm from this may be profound since this may affect, of course, even whether some of these patients will live or die. One factor possibly resulting in these differences is the moral weight providers place on what family members want when these outcomes differ from what they think patients would want. Providers now most commonly place greatest moral weight on following what patients would want to maximally respect their autonomy, but this view may clash with the view of others who see autonomy as more relational and thus based on prior and present social relations with others. Giving family members' wants more moral weight is a radical departure from what providers do now and may increase these differences.

After psychiatric evaluation, it was determined that she did not have the capacity to care for herself independently; adult protective services then pursued and was awarded guardianship. While admitted, the patient repeatedly refused medical treatment, had a feeding tube placed for forced nutrition and medications (though she did at one point remove this tube herself), and received two electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) treatments. Soon thereafter, the patient's court-appointed guardian met with the primary medical, psychiatric, and ethics teams to discuss goals of care in the setting of complex social and cultural needs. It was collectively determined that the patient's choices to refuse care (including nutrition, lab work, medications, and ECT) and some repeated behaviors (e.g., denial of divorce, denial of HIV, denial of need for care) could be considered culturally appropriate in the context of the acute stressors leading up to hospitalizations. All teams concluded, therefore, that the patient had the capacity to refuse these interventions and that further forced intervention would pose a greater chance of exacerbating her already-significant trauma history than improving her outcomes. Ultimately, the patient was able to be discharged into the care of her guardian, who would assist her in receiving support from members of her community who share her language and culture.</p>","PeriodicalId":39646,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Ethics","volume":"35 3","pages":"190-198"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141983571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the frequency with which these ethically complex situations exist during donation, OPO staff are at heightened risk for experiencing moral distress and burnout, yet they are seldom acknowledged in the existing moral distress literature.

Contingency measures modify the allocation of hospital space, staff, and supplies in service of these two goals. Although functionally equivalent care is theoretically possible, hospitals often cannot know a priori which alterations to space, staff, or supplies will lead to downstream effects on patient outcomes, raising ethical questions about how hospitals should institute equitable contingency measures when safety and efficacy data is limited.
