  • From Detached Concern to Love

    Anjola Onadipe, Farr Curlin et al.ARTICLEAcademic Medicine2025

    Developing appropriate professional boundaries is part of becoming a mature clinician. Boundaries help physicians fulfill their duties in relationally complex and emotionally fraught situations. The concept of “detached concern” has been used to characterize physician-patient relationships in which physicians show empathy and concern while maintaining due emotional distance. However, if the default tendency of trainees and clinicians is toward de…

  • The Power of Proximity

    Open AccessC Phifer Nicholson, 雅博 木下 et al.ARTICLEThe Hastings Center Report2024

    Although the field of surgical ethics focuses primarily on informed consent, surgical decision‐making, and research ethics, some surgeons have started to consider ethical questions regarding justice and solidarity with poor and minoritized populations. To date, those calling for social justice in surgical care have emphasized increased diversity within the ranks of the surgical profession. This article, in contrast, foregrounds the agency of thos…

  • Intensive Care Clinicians’ Views on the Role of Chaplains

    Philip J Choi, Vinca Chow et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Care Chaplaincy2019

    There is evidence that addressing the religious and spiritual needs of patients has positive effects on patient satisfaction and health care utilization. However, in the intensive care unit (ICU), chaplains are often consulted only at the very end of life, thereby leaving patients' spiritual needs unmet. This study looked at the views of 219 ICU clinicians on the role of chaplains. We found that all clinicians find chaplains helpful when a patien…

  • How Should Physicians Respond to Patient Requests for Religious Concordance

    Open AccessJacob A Blythe, Farr A CurlinARTICLEThe AMA Journal of Ethic2019

    In which ways and in which circumstances should institutions and individual physicians facilitate patient-physician religious concordance when requested by a patient? This question suggests not only uncertainty about the relevance of particular traits to physicians' professional roles but also that medical practice can be construed as primarily bureaucratic and technological. This construal is misleading. Using the metaphor of shared language, th…

  • What Should Physicians and Chaplains Do When a Patient Believes God Wants Him to Suffer

    Open AccessBenjamin W Frush, John Brewer Eberly et al.ARTICLEThe AMA Journal of Ethic2018

    When physicians encounter a patient who gives religious reasons for wanting to suffer, physicians should maintain their commitment to the patient's health while making room for religiously informed understandings of suffering and respecting the patient's authority to refuse medically indicated interventions. Respecting the patient can include challenging the patient's reasoning, and physicians can decline to participate in interventions that they…

  • Courage and Compassion

    Open AccessMichael Hawking, Farr A Curlin et al.ARTICLEThe AMA Journal of Ethic2017

    What, if anything, can medical ethics offer to assist in the care of the "difficult" patient? We begin with a discussion of virtue theory and its application to medical ethics. We conceptualize the "difficult" patient as an example of a "moral stress test" that especially challenges the physician's character, requiring the good physician to display the virtues of courage and compassion. We then consider two clinical vignettes to flesh out how the…

  • Changes in health status and frequency of attending religious services among medical inpatients with repeat admissions

    Grace S Chung, Manuel J Diaz et al.ARTICLEJournal of Religion, Spirituality…2016

    Although frequent attendance at religious services is associated with healthier behaviors and improved health outcomes, this relationship is confounded to the extent that attending religious services requires and displays a certain degree of health. This study surveyed patients over multiple hospitalizations at a large urban academic medical center to test the hypothesis that changes in health status would be accompanied by parallel changes in re…

  • The NERSH International Collaboration on Values, Spirituality and Religion in Medicine

    Open AccessNiels Christian Hvidt, Alex Kappel Kørup et al.ARTICLEReligions2016Citada por: 3Referencias: 61

    Modern healthcare research has only in recent years investigated the impact of health care workers' religious and other moral values on medical practice, interaction with patients, and ethically complex decision-making. Thus far, no international data exist on the way such values vary across different countries. We therefore established the NERSH International Collaboration on Values in Medicine with datasets on physician religious characteristic…

  • [ R e]considering Respect for Persons in a Globalizing World

    Open AccessAasim I Padela, Aisha Y Malik et al.ARTICLEDeveloping World Bioethics2015

    Contemporary clinical ethics was founded on principlism, and the four principles: respect for autonomy, nonmaleficence, beneficence and justice, remain dominant in medical ethics discourse and practice. These principles are held to be expansive enough to provide the basis for the ethical practice of medicine across cultures. Although principlism remains subject to critique and revision, the four‐principle model continues to be taught and applied …
