How Should Clinicians Respond if Patient HIV Denial Could Exacerbate Racial Health Inequities
This commentary examines the appropriateness of a clinician's deceiving a patient who will not discuss lifesaving therapy through the lens of solidarity, a key professional ethical value. Clinicians' awareness of social determinants of many patients' increased vulnerability to HIV infection is needed to promote equitable HIV intervention outcomes at both individual and community levels
A Small‐Town Heart
Melanie presented at twenty weeks of gestation to an obstetrics clinic in a critical access hospital in rural Vermont. She was excited to undergo routine fetal ultrasonography, but her obstetrician gave her grave news: the ultrasound revealed hypoplastic left heart syndrome, a devastating congenital heart defect. Initially, Melanie agreed in general to pursue surgical care for her fetus—a three‐stage process that has somewhat uncertain results an…
Can Consent to Participate in Clinical Research Involve Shared Decision Making
Shared decision making honors patient autonomy and improves patient comprehension and therefore should be a part of every clinical decision a patient makes. Use of shared decision making in research informed consent conversations is more complicated due to diverse and potentially divergent investigator and patient interests, along with the presence of clinical equipoise. This article clarifies these different interests and discusses ways in which…
Sliding-Scale Shared Decision Making for Patients With Reduced Capacity
Shared decision making honors patient autonomy, particularly for preference-sensitive care decisions. Shared decision making can be challenging, however, when patients have impaired decision-making capacity. Here, after presenting an illustrative case example, this paper proposes a capacity-adjusted "sliding scale" approach to shared decision making
