Area of Science:

  • Medical Ethics
  • Paediatric Healthcare
  • Clinical Decision Making

Background:

  • Parents possess legal and moral authority in pediatric healthcare decisions.
  • Parental engagement in ethics case consultations within Australian pediatric settings is not routine.
  • The moral and practical aspects of parental involvement in ethics consultations require debate.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate an Australian paediatric Clinical Ethics Response Group (CERG) through a quality assurance project.
  • To explore parental involvement in CERG ethics case consultations.
  • To identify potential improvements for clinical ethics support services.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted semi-structured interviews (n=12) with CERG members and referring clinicians.
  • Explored views on parental involvement in ethics case consultations via virtual platforms (Zoom, Microsoft Teams).
  • Utilized inductive content analysis on manually coded interview transcripts.

Main Results:

  • A consensus emerged from a small group that parents should have the opportunity to provide input in ethics case deliberations.
  • Input can be offered through written submissions or meeting attendance.
  • The optimal process for parental involvement remains undetermined.

Conclusions:

  • Initiating debate on the rationale and processes for parental involvement is crucial.
  • Developing best practices for Australian paediatric ethics case consultations requires careful consideration of parental engagement.
  • Further research is needed to establish optimal methods for integrating parental perspectives.
