Three Patients by David W. Crippen Book PDF Summary

Presents discussion of three cases by critical care physicians from around the world as a means of addressing a crucial set of ethical dilemmas stemming from modern medical technology and the lifesaving potential of modern critical care medicine. Three hypothetical patients, each with a different chance of survival, are considered as candidates for intensive care by an international panel of critical care physicians. Assessment of each patient's condition is provided, along with outlines for treatment approaches, which are then examined by academic medical experts and a medical ethicist, as well as from a legal perspective. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
