People do not particularly enjoy things that don't taste or seem very good. Gastroenterologists should allow patients to pick and choose out of the medicines that best fit to their needs. The physician should always allow the choice as a possibility though in case it is necessary.
As the third paragraph states, the medicines should only be used to a patient's consent, it should also be used only to an extent. If a patient has chosen to take the odd side of the medicinal route, the strange medicines should only be used until the patient is healthy enough to be placed on a more desireable treatment. If a different medicine could be used, then the physician should not use this, to the patient's wills of course.

    Patients are ultimately responsible for their own health and wellbeing and should be held responsible for the consequences of their decisions and actions. All people have the right to refuse treatment even where refusal may result in harm to themselves or in their own death and providers are legally bound to respect their decision. If patients cannot decide for themselves, but have previously decided to refuse treatment while still competent, their decision is legally binding. Where a patient's views are not known, the doctor has a responsibility to make a decision, but should consult other healthcare professionals and people close to the patient.

    ...d how these determinations effect a physician’s approach to various types of critically ill patients? These types of questions come in to play when one attempts to critically analyze the differences between the types of terminally ill patients and the subtle ethical/legal nuances between withholding and withdrawing treatment. According to a review by Larry Gostin and Robert Weir about Nancy Cruzan, “…courts examine the physician’s respect for the desires of the patient and the level of care administered. A rule forbidding physicians from discontinuing a treatment that could have been withheld initially will discourage doctors from attempting certain types of care and force them prematurely to allow a patient to die. Physicians must be free to exercise their best professional judgment, especially when facing the sensitive question of whether to administer treatment.”

    This document can be said to have been given based upon a clear appreciation and understanding of the facts, implications, and future consequences of a treatment by a health professional. Before this document was put into place, the thought was such that if an individual is receiving free healthcare, the physicians treating them are able to do whatever they want to them without their prior knowledge. This placed the treating physician in a paternalistic mindset, allowing them to decide what is best for their patient based on what could potentially help science and medicine down the road. With a “father knows best” approach, the patients were unable to practice their own autonomy and self-determination to decide what procedures and treatments would be best for themselves and their families. These patients were viewed as lesser of a person because they could not afford healthcare. Because of this, many physicians and scientists alike treated them as if they were lab rats. Informed consent also put forth guidelines for relaying information from patient to provider. This document has made it so that the parties involved are well aware and clearly understand what is going on and what will likely happen as a result. Before this, families and patients were left in a gray area, which allowed the physician to sputter off medical jargon to eventually confuse them and be able to do

  • Hippocratic Oath Essay

    As a physician, it is your sworn duty to protect those that are being treated under the Hippocratic oath. Although there are different dictations of the original oath, they all have the same context. When the law comes into play, physicians should remain true to the oath. When physicians take this oath, they have an obligation to keep their patients from harm and injustice. As a Hippocratic oath pledgee, one is also vowing to neither give a deadly drug to anybody who asked for it, nor make a suggestion to this effect. In modern times, society’s pressure can cause physicians to conform, but as a future physician, forcibly medicating a patient for a progression to death will never be a portion of my practice.

  • Ethical Theory Of Autonomy In Nursing

    1265 Words  | 3 Pages

    Once a person has freely made his choice, health care providers are required to respect the patient’s decision as part of the patient’s autonomy. A patient’s family might demand doctors to keep a patient alive living off of either machines or pain medication, even after doctors established such methods would not be effective anymore. Even though, the patient’s family knows that the treatment is no longer achievable, they may still expect doctors to do everything under the patient’s autonomy. However, the true reason is that the family is not ready to let go of a loved one. Therefore, they are willing to put the patient through pointless pain and suffering at the end of his or her life. In such cases, it would be easy for a doctor to obey the family’s request, but it would not be the right thing to do for the patient. Doctors must educate and instruct patients and their families about patient autonomy, and the principle of “do no harm” in
