The six‐thinking‐hat technique for decision‐making in biomedical ethics
Within the densely packed undergraduate medical curriculum, Biomedical Ethics, the soul of medical profession, is often underestimated in favour of a strong emphasis on clinical decision-making. Biomedical ethical dilemmas are intricate and complex, and clear-cut solutions are frequently not found. Decision-making is further complicated by balancing ethical and legal considerations with multifaceted human factors such as emotions, fears and socie…

Methods. Randomly selected CHWs were observed managing sick outpatient and inpatient children at a hospital, and their management was compared with that of an expert clinician who used the algorithm. Results. One hundred, 108, and 114 CHWs p…
