The Less-Told Stories of Informed Consent
Addiction
An introduction to the January 2008 edition of Virtual Mentor, which explores the ethical aspects of diagnosing and treating addiction. Virtual Mentor is a monthly bioethics journal published by the American Medical Association
Closing the Gender Gap in Medical Journal Publishing
Medicine, like other professions, has traditionally been dominated by men. Although women now make up 49 percent of incoming medical students [1], it is still unusual to find them in the highest positions of academic leadership. In a 2006 article entitled "The 'Gender Gap' in Authorship of Academic Medical Literature-A 35-Year Perspective," published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Reshma Jagsi and colleagues reported on their collected i…
Connecting Inadequate Health Insurance to Poorer Cancer Treatment Outcomes
A journal article's findings confirm that patients in Kentucky with private health insurance have better clinical outcomes than patients with other types of insurance. Virtual Mentor is a monthly bioethics journal published by the American Medical Association
Use of Images in Public Health Campaigns
Illustrations have long been used to make statements about the current culture-pop, political, or otherwise. In the past, these images, which included cartoons, commented about culture and society's often-negative perception of the "other," but today they are more culturally diverse and place higher value on ethnic and racial variety. Rather than advancing cultural stereotypes, physicians and government health officials now use cartoons and other…
Daubert and Expert Testimony
In the matter of Daubert v Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals the Supreme Court was asked to “determine the standard for admitting expert scientific testimony in a federal trial” [1]. Its decision in the case set standards that guide the admissibility of expert medical, as well as scientific, testimony
An Evening on the Hospice Unit
Nervous anticipation always swirls in the depths of my stomach when I hear the familiar “ding” of the elevator signaling that I have reached the top floor of the hospital. Some of the staff have said that hospice is put on the top level because you’re the closest to heaven, but, whatever the reason, riding past those other floors always gives me time to imagine what I will find once the double doors open
Legal Protection for Conscientious Objection by Health Professionals
A growing number of states is enacting laws to protect the right of health care workers to conscientiously object to perform certain services that are morally opposed to. Virtual Mentor is a monthly bioethics journal published by the American Medical Association
"Equus" and the Relationship between Religion and Medicine
Physicians face a conflict between desiring to cure a patient of his or her psychiatric illness and recognizing that the cure will take away from the patient's purpose in life. Virtual Mentor is a monthly bioethics journal published by the American Medical Association
Assessing Physician Legislators
The careers of four physician legislators who have been successful in combining their medical and political identities are examined. Virtual Mentor is a monthly bioethics journal published by the American Medical Association
Adolescence and Gender Identity
A coming-of-age memoir about one man's journey into womanhood underscores the important role that physicians can play to recognize transgenderism in adolescents and coordinate the care for gender reassignment. Virtual Mentor is a monthly bioethics journal published by the American Medical Association
The Importance of Standard of Care and Documentation
Physicians should be diligent in taking a medical history, adhering to the standard of care and documenting their actions during every patient encounter, particularly when there is no established patient-physician relationship. Virtual Mentor is a monthly bioethics journal published by the American Medical Association
