Ethical dilemmas in nursing are of utmost importance, as they often arise from the tension between adhering to core ethical principles and the practical realities of healthcare delivery. These dilemmas require nurses to navigate complex situations where competing ethical considerations pull them in different directions.
Let us explore some examples to understand the potentially complex moral decisions nurses face.
Take the case of caring for minors, particularly in areas related to reproductive...

The American Nurses Association (ANA) created and implemented the first nationally accepted Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements. The Code of Ethics is a living document regularly updated by the ANA and establishes an ethical standard that is non-negotiable for nurses in all roles and settings.
The Code of Ethics provisions outline the nurse's duty to the patient, the healthcare team, the profession, and society. The Code's fundamental principles include advocacy,...

Ethical principles are essential in guiding nurses to fulfill their responsibilities, focusing on the quality of nursing care and decision-making. These principles, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and fidelity, shape the ethical framework within healthcare settings.
Consider the following scenario, which illustrates how these principles are applied in the care of Mr. John, a fifty-year-old teacher diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer.
Initially, Mr. John's...

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Medical Ethics
  • Patient Engagement

Background:

  • Value-based healthcare emphasizes patient engagement in clinical decisions.
  • Shared decision-making (SDM) involves considering factors influencing both patient and physician choices.
  • Reconciling differing views on care is central to SDM.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the application of shared decision-making principles in surgical care.
  • To examine the integration of SDM for high-risk surgical candidates.
  • To discuss the relevance of SDM for patients with Do-Not-Resuscitate (DNR) orders.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on shared decision-making and patient engagement.
  • Analysis of SDM principles in the context of preoperative decision-making.
  • Exploration of ethical considerations for patients with DNR orders undergoing surgery.

Main Results:

  • SDM is vital for patient engagement in value-based healthcare.
  • Preoperative decisions are critical, particularly for high-risk surgical patients.
  • Integrating SDM with DNR status requires careful consideration of patient values and goals.

Conclusions:

  • Shared decision-making is essential for optimizing care for all patients, especially those with complex conditions or orders like DNR.
  • Applying SDM principles preoperatively can improve outcomes and patient satisfaction for high-risk surgical candidates.
  • Further research is needed to refine SDM strategies for patients with DNR orders undergoing procedures for quality of life improvement.
