Biomedical ethics

  1. Briefly explain the 4 models of doctor-patient interaction discussed in the Emmanuel & Emmanuel paper. Which model do the authors defend as an ideal framework for healthcare practice? What are their reasons for thinking this, according to the paper? Do you think that their preferred model violates patient autonomy, why or why not?
  2. Consider “Case 2”, at the end of Chapter 4 (Vaughn, 179): What options might the researcher have? what bioethical principles are in conflict, in this case? What do you think the researcher should do? Suppose there’s a law dictating that patients’ HIV status should never be disclosed: does that change your answer? Why or why not?
