Description



Book Synopsis



This book is designed to consolidate the relevant literature as well as the thoughts of professionals currently working in the field into a practical and accessible reference for the emergency medical technician, student, nurse, resident, and attending emergency physician. Each chapter is divided into four sections: case presentation, discussion, review of the current literature, and recommendations. Designed to serve simultaneously as a learning and reference tool, each chapter begins with a real case that was encountered in an ED setting. The case presentation is followed by a short discussion of the case, as if at a morbidity and mortality conference, by a panel of experienced attending physicians explaining how they would approach the ethical dilemmas associated with the case, and a review of the existing literature.



Review Quotes




"This outstanding work immediately becomes the standard textbook for ethics in emergency medicine, as the best competing text (Ethics in Emergency Medicine, 2nd edition, Iserson et al. (Galen Press, 1995)) is relatively out of date. It is a crucial resource for all emergency professionals and anyone with an interest in emergency medicine ethics. " (Doody's, 30 August 2013)
