Abstract

Psychiatrists have written much about the explosive expansion of scientific knowledge of the brain which developed over the late 20th century and the early 21st century. Comparatively little has been written within the field of psychiatry about the changes in society and world culture over this same period, and even less on the scope of psychiatric ethics that would account for these changes. Yet psychiatric ethics is an excellent framework in which to examine social changes in the field over the past 25 years, changes which are dramatic in nature and profound in impact. Some of these social changes include multiculturalism and its associated diversity of values; the transition to the digital era with its new demands on confidentiality, clinical boundaries, and privacy; the empowerment of psychiatric service users as full participants and co-producers of care; the development of new technologies of assessment and treatment, varying in their invasiveness and risk; the recognition of expanded social roles for psychiatrists, and the associated virtues of psychiatric citizenship; and the development of new practice models, settings, participants, and oversight, all of which represent profound challenges and opportunities for the ethical practice of psychiatry. The Oxford Handbook of Psychiatric Ethics is the most comprehensive treatment of the field in history. The volume is organized into ten sections which survey the scope of the text: (1) Introduction, (2) People Come First, (3) Specific Populations, (4) Philosophy and Psychiatric Ethics, (5) Religious Contexts of Psychiatric Ethics, (6) Social Contexts of Psychiatric Ethics, (7) Ethics in Psychiatric Citizenship and the Law, (8) Ethics of Psychiatric Research, (9) Ethics and Values in Psychiatric Assessment and Diagnosis, (10) Ethics and Values in Psychiatric Treatment. Written and edited by an international team of experts, this landmark book provides a powerful and important review of psychiatric ethics in the 21st Century.

Abstract

euromodulation is among the fastest-growing areas of medicine, involving many diverse specialties and affecting hundreds of thousands of patients with numerous disorders worldwide. It can briefly be described as the science of how electrical, chemical, and mechanical interventions can modulate the nervous system function. A prominent example of neuromodulation is deep brain stimulation (DBS), an intervention that reflects a fundamental shift in the understanding of neurological and psychiatric diseases: namely as resulting from a dysfunctional activity pattern in a defined neuronal network that can be normalized by targeted stimulation. The application of DBS has grown remarkably and more than 130,000 patients worldwide have obtained a DBS intervention in the past 30 years—most of them for treating movement disorders. This Frontiers Research Topics provides an overview on the current discussion beyond basic research in DBS and other brain stimulation technologies. Researchers from various disciplines, who are working on broader clinical, ethical and social issues related to DBS and related neuromodulation technologies, have contributed to this research topic.

Abstract

This book looks specifically at clinical trials - those research studies that involve the active participation of people to test the safety and effectiveness of new medical treatments. The majority of clinical trials are sponsored by pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies. The purpose of the book is to present facts, information and case examples in order for you to make an informed decision about participating in a trial. What should you expect? What kinds of questions should you ask? How can you minimize your risk? The book begins with a brief history about the industry, a discussion of the drug development process and what is involved in bringing a new drug to market. What are your rights as a study volunteer? What is informed consent and what are specific federal regulations and guidelines that protect your safety and ethical treatment? Next the book describes the process of participating in a clinical trial. How do you volunteer for a study? How can you identify the appropriate trials for your condition or that of a family member or friend? The book also contains ideas and impressions from people who have actually participated in clinical trials.

Abstract

Whilst the treatment of mortal remains was largely predetermined in previous generations as an essential part of their respective cultures, the significance of the commandment to respect "dignity" and "piety" has nowadays become more unclear. Modern pluralism makes guidelines of behavior questionable, for example concerning burial, autopsy, or the use of body parts for transplant, scientific or teaching purposes, if this has not been legitimized by the "self-determination right" of the individual. At the same time, the "informed consent" appears as a passepartout for any kind of handling a corpse, even though it may be controversial, as in a commercial public exhibition. The interdisciplinary volume, which resulted from the 2nd Göttinger Symposium of the Center for Medical Law, deals with the wide field of "correct" intercourse with a corpse from the perspective of theology and medicine philosophy, medical law, anatomy and law medicine. Während früheren Generationen der Umgang mit den sterblichen Überresten als essentieller Bestandteil ihrer jeweiligen Kultur weithin vorgegeben war, ist der Bedeutungsgehalt des Gebots zur Achtung von „Würde“ und „Pietät“ heute mehr denn je unklar geworden. Der moderne Pluralismus lässt Verhaltensvorgaben etwa bei der Bestattung, der Obduktion oder der Verwendung von Körperteilen zu Transplantations-, wissenschaftlichen oder Lehrzwecken fragwürdig erscheinen, wenn dies nicht durch das „Selbstbestimmungsrecht“ des Einzelnen legitimiert worden ist. Zugleich erscheint der „informed consent“ als Passepartout für jeden beliebigen Umgang mit Leichnamen, mag er wie bei einer kommerziell geprägten öffentlichen Zurschaustellung gesamtgesellschaftlich auch noch so kontrovers sein. Der interdisziplinäre, aus dem 2. Göttinger Symposium des Zentrums für Medizinrecht hervorgegangene Band behandelt das weite Themenfeld des „richtigen“ Umgangs mit dem Leichnam aus Sicht von Theologie und Medizinphilosophie, von Medizinrecht, Anatomie und Rechtsmedizin.
