Background Reading

Medical Ethics in Clinical Practice by Matjaž Zwitter
Call Number: Springer eBook Collection
ISBN: 9783030007188
Publication Date: 2019
The introductory chapters present some basic concepts of medical ethics, such as the relation between the legal system and ethics, ethical documents, ethical theories, and ethical analysis. The following chapters address issues of importance in all fields of medicine: respecting autonomy, communication, relations within a healthcare team, professional malpractice, limited resources, and the portrait of a physician. In turn, the third part of the book focuses on ethical aspects in a broad range of medical activities – preventive medicine, human reproduction, genetics, pediatrics, intensive care, palliative medicine, clinical research, unproven methods in diagnostics and treatment, and the role of physicians who aren’t directly responsible for patient care.

This chapter sets out crucial ethical and legal issues raised both by existing targeted genetic testing and, more importantly, by the rising tide of broader genomic tests. Clinical genetic testing has been available for over 45 years, but not all the concerns have been resolved.
