  1. Patientenverfügungen in der Radioonkologie: Einstellungen von Patienten, Ärzten und Pflegepersonal. [REVIEW]Marga Lang-Welzenbach, Claus Rödel & Jochen Vollmann - 2008 - Ethik in der Medizin 20 (4):300-312.
    Das Recht von Patienten, selbst über ihre Behandlung zu bestimmen, erfährt in der Radioonkologie eine zunehmende Bedeutung. Damit verknüpft ist die Diskussion um Patientenverfügungen, die trotz großer allgemeiner Akzeptanz in der klinischen Praxis nur selten verwendet werden. Ziel dieser qualitativen Studie war es, die Einstellungen von Patienten, Ärzten und dem Pflegepersonal zur Mitbestimmung von Patienten bei aktuellen Therapieentscheidungen und gegenüber Patientenverfügungen zu untersuchen.Es wurden 15 Patienten, 7 Ärzte und 13 Pflegende einer radioonkologischen Universitätsklinik in halboffenen, leitfadengestützten Interviews zu folgenden Themen (...)

  • Advance Directives Outside the USA: Are They the Best Solution Everywhere?Miguel A. Sanchez-Conzalez - 1997 - Theoretical Medicine 18 (3):283-301.
    This article evaluates the potential role of advance directives outside of their original North American context. In order to do this, the article first analyses the historical process which has promoted advance directives in recent years. Next, it brings to light certain presuppositions which have given them force: atomistic individualism, contractualism, consumerism and entrepreneurialism, pluralism, proceduralism, and “American moralism.” The article next studies certain European cultural peculiarities which could affect advance directives: the importance of virtue versus rights, stoicism versus consumerist (...)

  • Too soon to give up: Re-examining the value of advance directives.Benjamin H. Levi & Michael J. Green - 2010 - American Journal of Bioethics 10 (4):3 – 22.
    In the face of mounting criticism against advance directives, we describe how a novel, computer-based decision aid addresses some of these important concerns. This decision aid, Making Your Wishes Known: Planning Your Medical Future , translates an individual's values and goals into a meaningful advance directive that explicitly reflects their healthcare wishes and outlines a plan for how they wish to be treated. It does this by (1) educating users about advance care planning; (2) helping individuals identify, clarify, and prioritize (...)

  • Advance directives and the severely demented.Martin Harvey - 2006 - Journal of Medicine and Philosophy 31 (1):47 – 64.
    Should advance directives (ADs) such as living wills be employed to direct the care of the severely demented? In considering this question, I focus primarily on the claims of Rebecca Dresser who objects in principle to the use of ADs in this context. Dresser has persuasively argued that ADs are both theoretically incoherent and ethically dangerous. She proceeds to advocate a Best Interest Standard as the best way for deciding when and how the demented ought to be treated. I put (...)

  • Institutional Efforts to Promote Advance Care Planning in Nursing Homes: Challenges and Opportunities.Elizabeth H. Bradley, Barbara B. Blechner, Leslie C. Walker & Terrie T. Wetle - 1997 - Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics 25 (2-3):150-159.
    During the past two decades, several reports have documented substantial support from clinicians, policy-makers, and the general public for the use of advance directives, yet studies continue to find that only a minority of individuals have completed these legal documents. Advance directives are written instructions, such as living wills or durable powers of attorney for health care, which describe an individual's medical treatment wishes in the event that individual becomes incapacitated in the future. The completion and use of advance directives (...)
