Thought I was confident in ethics until I realized I was getting your example questions wrong. Thank you for keeping us up to date on the ethics scenarios and giving us much more complex examples! The examples on UWorld and NBME are definitely watered down compared to this. Please make more of these! :)

Thanks Dr Randy it's a terrific video.i'm not too keen on the 5th question, the patient has oral directive.so if I'm not mistaken the oral directive is more valid.because a nurse who was with the patient earlier in the day said the patient didn't want any procedure and prefer to die peacefully. So we don't want any surrogate decision makers.

Amazing as usual! please make one about medical errors, like physician fatigue/burnout etc..

Daniel, It has been a long time... Hope you are well. Sounds like you are moving in the right direction. Keep me posted.

Hello Dr. Neil, a quick question regarding the patients living will, power of attorney, at 15.54. If the patient themselves has stated that they do not wish any further treatments or procedures or life saving measures, shouldn’t that trump everything else? Or is it in this case vague and only has one nurse who said that the patient wanted this? I know from other UW questions if the patient themselves states she wishes no further procedures or life saving measures, in spite of her husband telling the doctor to keep the breathing tube in, the doctor is ethically and legally correct to take it out.

sir please upload more videos on ethics

regarding the brain bleeding coma case: let's say that the patient told the nurse and his twin sister, who was there at the moment, his wish to refuse any additional procedures. Can that be considered an oral advance directive?

Rx qbank says DPA overrides living will(16:00). Got confused

Thanks in advance 👌 What is different between TB ,STD and HIV?All should report or not?

to my knowledge a durable power of attorney can override a living will if the patient becomes incapacitated

Hi Dr. Neil, thank you so much for your videos - can you please clarify something for me.. I am pretty sure that u world stated graduation from high school = emancipated Can you please let me know which is correct (your video says college = not emancipated)

hey dr neill love the videos about the last question wouldn't it be a toss up between consent vs assent the parents have a disagreement you still ask the child what they want and then go from there ? would love if you could clarify

it is very helpful need more lecutres on ethics coz i'm having so many question worng while solving uworld in ethics portion

Hi, thank you for the ethics questions. I have few ethical scenarios I'm not sure about and need help with. What if you and your physician colleague are performing a procedure on a patient and had discussed the plan before operating, but your colleague changes his mind when you both are at operating table and keeps insisting to go first. What do you do in that situation?

Your way is not excellent but what comes after! Well done Dr. Randy. It is not only about the information but the techniques you explain that lead me to choose the proper answer, consider some MCQs, and exclude the others. I really hope you cover all parts of the USMLE before I take it with more content and extended videos. My sincere regards from Saudi Arabia.

Thank you so much but in the first question why the Non maleficence is not the answer by recommending the amputation the physician prevent sepsis and death from happening so he is preventing harm happening !?

Thank you sir. Great video pertaining this subject that is new to IMG especially. Waiting for the next video to come out. Also I had a confusion regarding heirarchy of decision making. I read somewhere that health power of attorney can overrule living will if a conflict happens in both of them i.e living will is completely different to what power of attorney is telling. So just wanted to confirm if that hold true in situations?

@acingmedicine

4 жыл бұрын

someone who has an advance directive has it either in the form of a health care proxy or a living will to convey his/her wishes when they become unable to. I don't think someone could have both, but in that case the health power of attorney should win.

@RandyNeilMD

4 жыл бұрын

It can be confusing and perhaps putting one above the other isn't best decision, because the two are separate. LIVING WILL - states the patient's wishes for end of life care. The DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY (DPOA) - designates a person to act on your behalf if you cannot. To prevent family conflict will "pulling the plug", the DPOA would essentailly act in the patients interest, most likely to have been outlined in the LIVING WILL, it there is one.
