The ethics of climate change and health-care delivery
A focus group study of ethical issues during climate-informed health decision-making
The Bucksbaum Institute for Clinical Excellence and the Doctor–Patient Relationship
The Bucksbaum Institute for Clinical Excellence at the University of Chicago was established in 2011 with the mission to improve patient care, strengthen the doctor–patient relationship, enhance communication and decision making in health care, and reduce health care disparities. The Bucksbaum Institute supports the development and activities of medical students, junior faculty, and senior clinicians who devote themselves to improving doctor–pati…
Lessons from 30 Years of Teaching Clinical Ethics
The best clinical medicine, Plato tells us, is practiced when the scientific and technical aspects of care are placed in the context of a personal and professional relationship in which the physician strives to win the patient's support and trust1. In this regard, the professional and ethical values described by Plato and those expected of contemporary physicians are remarkably similar. Both are based on a medical relationship with the patient in…
Professional Values in Modern Clinical Practice
Professional Values in Modern Clinical Practice
How are professional values defined and applied in actual practice of modern medicine? Let me begin to answer that question by reviewing virtues that number of scholars regard as central professional values in medicine. James Drane considers beneficience, that is, good work doctor does for persons who are ill, to be fundamental ethical standard, and benevolence to be virtue that disposes doctors to provide medical help.[1] He also includes as car…
The Physician as a Health Care Proxy
Many states prohibit patients from appointing their physicians as health care proxies, fearing paternalism and conflict of interest. But the potential for conflict is not unique to physicians, and patients may have compelling reasons to prefer that their doctor make decisions on their behalf. Managing potential conflicts serves patients better than denying them the right to choose who will make health care decisions for them when they are no long…
Ethics Committees
In Siegler's opinion, institutional ethics committees (IECs) threaten\nto undermine the physician patient relationship by removing or attenuating the\nphysician's decision making authority. Though a majority of committees do not\nview themselves as final decision makers but as advisors or consensus\ndevelopers, a physician who goes against committee advice is bucking\nconsiderable social pressure. Ethics committees should not consult on cases\nor…
Ethical Dilemmas
Should Age Be a Criterion in Health Care
Siegler identifies the elderly as a population vulnerable to\ndiscrimination as society seeks to contain health care costs by rationing\nmedical care. Traditional decision making by physicians and patients, which\nis based upon medical indications and the wishes of the patient, may yield to\ndecision making based upon institutional and social expediency and economic\nconcerns. Siegler predicts that as a consequence of cost containment\nmeasures, …
Treating the Jobless for Free
Siegler, a physician, and Schwartz, a former New York Times editor, debate whether physicians have a special moral obligation to provide free medical care to those unable to pay, specifically the unemployed who have lost their health benefits. Siegler, answering affirmatively, cites the special responsibility of the medical profession to society, the responsibility of the individual physician for his patients' health, and the obligation arising o…

Ethical Problems in Clinical Practice
A hydrogel is a polymeric three-dimensional network structure. The applications of this material type are diversified over a broad range of fields. Their soft nature and similarity to natural tissue allows for their use in tissue engineering, medical devices, agriculture, and industrial health products. However, as the demand for such materials increases, the need to understand the material mechanics is paramount across all fields. As a result, m…
