Voluntary euthanasia under control? Further empirical evidence from The Netherlands. (2/286)

Nineteen ninety-six saw the publication of a major Dutch survey into euthanasia in the Netherlands. This paper outlines the main statistical findings of this survey and considers whether it shows that voluntary euthanasia is under effective control in the Netherlands. The paper concludes that although there has been some improvement in compliance with procedural requirements, the practice of voluntary euthanasia remains beyond effective control.  (+info)

Slippery slopes in flat countries--a response. (3/286)

In response to the paper by Keown and Jochemsen in which the latest empirical data concerning euthanasia and other end-of-life decisions in the Netherlands is discussed, this paper discusses three points. The use of euthanasia in cases in which palliative care was a viable alternative may be taken as proof of a slippery slope. However, it could also be interpreted as an indication of a shift towards more autonomy-based end-of-life decisions. The cases of non-voluntary euthanasia are a serious problem in the Netherlands and they are only rarely justifiable. However, they do not prove the existence of a slippery slope. Persuading the physician to bring euthanasia cases to the knowledge of the authorities is a problem of any euthanasia policy. The Dutch notification procedure has recently been changed to reduce the underreporting of cases. However, many questions remain.  (+info)

A problem for the idea of voluntary euthanasia. (4/286)

I question whether, in those cases where physician-assisted suicide is invoked to alleviate unbearable pain and suffering, there can be such a thing as voluntary euthanasia. The problem is that when a patient asks to die under such conditions there is good reason to think that the decision to die is compelled by the pain, and hence not freely chosen. Since the choice to die was not made freely it is inadvisable for physicians to act in accordance with it, for this may be contrary to the patient's genuine wishes. Thus, what were thought to be cases of voluntary euthanasia might actually be instances of involuntary euthanasia.  (+info)

Advance directives are the solution to Dr Campbell's problem for voluntary euthanasia. (5/286)

Dr Neil Campbell suggests that when patients suffering extremes of protracted pain ask for help to end their lives, their requests should be discounted as made under compulsion. I contend that the doctors concerned should be referred to and then act upon advance directives made by those patients when of sound and calm mind and afflicted by no such intolerable compulsion.  (+info)

Hospice and euthanasia in The Netherlands: an ethical point of view. (6/286)

This contribution is a report of a two months' participant observation in a Dutch hospice. The goal of the observation was to gain an overview of moral decisions in a hospice in which euthanasia, a tolerated practice in the Netherlands, is not accepted as an option. In an introduction, the development of palliative care in the Netherlands will be briefly presented. Subsequently, various moral decisions that were taken during the participant observation are presented and analysed by means of case reports. Attention is especially drawn to decisions that directly or indirectly relate to euthanasia. These moral decisions will be clarified in the light of the philosophy behind the concept of palliative care as it has evolved since the foundation of St Christopher's Hospice, London in 1967.  (+info)

Stability of attitudes regarding physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia among oncology patients, physicians, and the general public. (7/286)

PURPOSE: Attitudes regarding the ethics of physician-assisted suicide (PAS) and euthanasia have been examined in many cross-sectional studies. Stability of these attitudes has not been studied, and this is important in informing the dialog on PAS in this country. We evaluated the stability of attitudes regarding euthanasia and PAS among three cohorts. METHODS: Subjects included 593 respondents: 111 oncology patients, 324 oncologists, and 158 members of the general public. We conducted initial and follow-up interviews separated by 6 to 12 months by telephone, regarding acceptance of PAS and euthanasia in four different clinical vignettes. RESULTS: The proportion of respondents with stable responses to vignettes ranged from 69.2% to 94.8%. In comparison to patients and the general public, physicians had less stable responses concerning the PAS pain vignette (69.1% v 80.8%; P =.001) and more stable responses for all euthanasia vignettes (P <.001) except for pain. Over time, physicians were significantly more likely to change toward opposing PAS and euthanasia in all vignettes (P <.05). Characteristics previously associated with attitudes regarding PAS and euthanasia, such as Roman Catholic religion, were not predictive of stability. CONCLUSION: Up to one third of participants changed their attitudes regarding the ethical acceptability of PAS and euthanasia in their follow-up interview. This lack of consistency mandates careful interpretation of referendums and requests for physician-assisted suicide. Furthermore, in this study, we found that physicians are becoming increasingly opposed to PAS and euthanasia. The growing disparity between physicians and patients regarding the role of these practices is large enough to suggest possible conflicts in the delivery of end-of-life care.  (+info)

Cutaneous mucinosis and mastocytosis in a shar-pei. (8/286)

A 7-year-old shar-pei was presented because of a recurrent dermatologic condition. Skin biopsies revealed an idiopathic (primary) cutaneous mucinosis that initially responded to corticosteroids. The condition reappeared 2 years later and subsequent biopsies revealed a mast cell tumor in some of the skin sites previously diagnosed with mucinosis.  (+info)

euthanasia | rtla-sa
Is there at present anywhere in the world legislation which allows voluntary euthanasia?. The horrors of the mass-destruction in the Third Reich of Jews, of people who were senile or psychotic and of children who were severely handicapped, arose directly from a policy of restrictive voluntary euthanasia in the first instance. These atrocities led international medical organisations to Condemn the practice of euthanasia under any circumstance (Resolution adopted by the General Assembly of the World Medical Association in 1950).. In the majority of countries euthanasia or assisted suicide is against the law.. Dutch euthanasia experiment. An article reproduced in an edition of the Journal of Medical Ethics states: The authors reviewed the findings of a large 1995 survey into end-of-life decisions by Dutch doctors. This survey involved interviews with 405 doctors and questionnaires mailed to physicians who had attended more than 6000 deaths.. In the Netherlands, physician-assisted death is subject ...

Ethics Forum: More Euthanasia, Assisted-Suicide PropagandaEthics Forum: More Euthanasia, Assisted-Suicide Propaganda
For example, the Report indicates there has been one case of the use of euthanasia on disabled babies in the Netherlands. This is probably correct in the short time since the Groningen protocol allowing such euthanasia was formally accepted. But, prior to that, an article in the New England Journal of Medicine documents 22 cases of babies with spina bifida being euthanized, which is not mentioned. Such pro-euthanasia presentations of the facts are concerning and misleading. Likewise, the availability in the Netherlands of euthanasia for children is not mentioned. The combination of euthanasia and donation of organs for transplant in Belgium and the recent case in Flanders of joint euthanasia of a terminally ill man and his healthy wife are ignored. And a survey of Belgian physicians who had carried out euthanasia, published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, which showed 32 percent of those physicians had carried out euthanasia without the patients request or consent is never ...

Euthanasia in the United States - WikipediaEuthanasia in the United States - Wikipedia
Debates about the ethics of euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide date from ancient Greece and Rome. After the development of ether, physicians began advocating the use of anesthetics to relieve the pain of death. In 1870, Samuel Williams first proposed using anesthetics and morphine to intentionally end a patients life. Over the next 35 years, debates about euthanasia raged in the United States which resulted in an Ohio bill to legalize euthanasia in 1906, a bill that was ultimately defeated.[6]. Euthanasia advocacy in the U.S. peaked again during the 1930s and diminished significantly during and after World War II. Euthanasia efforts were revived during the 1960s and 1970s, under the right-to-die rubric, physician assisted death in liberal bioethics, and through advance directives and do not resuscitate orders. Several major court cases advanced the legal rights of patients, or their guardians, to practice at least voluntary passive euthanasia (physician assisted death). These include the ...

Euthanasia is when those suffering from pain diseases wish to die on their own or perhaps with the assistance of a doctor. Thus, sometimes it is called assisted suicide. Very often in recent this has been called dying with dignity. For example an individual who has suffered immensely and who knows there is little or no possibility of recovery wish to die. For the medical community this issue brings up tough ethical problems. Does a person have the right to choose death as an option? Euthanasia also raises the idea of whether or not a doctor should participate in such a practice. These are very difficult issues to face, but ones that must be confronted when dealing with euthanasia. A person must first realize that euthanasia is a subject that is not easily defined. The origin of the word euthanasia comes from ancient Greek meaning good death. The following shows us that there are three categories to which euthanasia can be classified. (1) by an affirmative act designed to bring about death, ...

AVMA updates euthanasia guidelines | Feedstuffs
Specifically, the 2013 guidelines acknowledge euthanasia as a process that involves more than just what happens to an animal at the time of its death. In addition to providing more information about techniques used for euthanasia across a broader range of species, AVMA said this edition includes attention to ethical decision-making, provides detailed information about animals physiological and behavioral responses to euthanasia, considers euthanasias effects on those performing and observing it and takes into account the practicality and environmental impacts of various euthanasia approaches.. Panel members take their responsibility extremely seriously because we recognize that the AVMA guidelines are used by everyone from veterinarians in private practice to caretakers on farms, (to) researchers in biomedical facilities, to law enforcement, to governmental regulators, Leary said..

Belgiums Child Abuse: Euthanasia Law Endangers Some of the Most Vulnerable
On March 3, King Philippe of Belgium signed into law a euthanasia bill passed by lawmakers on Feb. 13. This law exposes Belgian children under the age of 18 to the possibility of being euthanized, making Belgium the first country in the world to expose children of any age to such a risk.. It is naïve to think that this law wont be abused. Alex Schadenberg of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition noted that 32% of the assisted deaths are done without request, and 47% of the assisted deaths go unreported in the Flanders region of Belgium. The 2012 euthanasia statistics also show that there was a 25% increase in the number of assisted deaths in Belgium.. Medicine that inflicts death is no medicine at all. Even in the fifth century B.C., the Greek physician Hippocrates knew what medicine was and was not. His oath states: I will apply dietetic measures for the benefit of the sick, according to my ability and judgment; I will keep them from harm and injustice. I will neither give a deadly drug to ...

These definitions can in term be labeled further as being either euthanasia by action or euthanasia by omission. Euthanasia is not a black-and-white issue and the ethical concerns are even more complicated. As euthanasia has become a more apparent concern the medical community has had to adjust its understanding. On the surface, euthanasia is a conflict to any physician. A doctor is theoretically obligated to prolong life, not to end it. For doctors, this dilemma challenges the Hippocratic Oath which commits them to increasingly incompatible duties-to preserve life and relive suffering. This conflict of conscience is steadily magnified by the swelling numbers of elderly people. In these circumstances, many people fear the prospect of senility far more than they fear death.citation needed Yet, the argument could be made that a physician is in fact helping another person by assisting in their death. They are relieving the pain of the suffering person. Perhaps this willingness to remedy pain by ...

Bioethics: Euthanasia Blog Post #3
While euthanasia presents many dilemmas to face there is also hope and potential solutions to many of these issues. As far as the misdiagnosis aspect of euthanasia is concerned it is possible to enact some form of advisory board of doctors, medical specialists and judges. This panel would be able to view and analyze each case to ensure that proper measures and tests had been run on the patient and that announcements as far as expected time left were as close as possible. While this may seem like a convoluted solution it seems like the safest way to ensure that euthanasia was only being offered to those that truly qualified. The worse thing that could happen would be people abusing euthanasia whether through elder abuse, financial reasons or using the system as a way of suicide. Another possible preventative measure to ensure the correct use of euthanasia would potentially be using social workers to work closely with the family to ensure that the patient was not being pressured into making a ...

Karmic considerations aside, what may be even more surprising is that euthanasia is most often performed for reasons other than to relieve physical pain.. The most comprehensive study of the Dutch experience with euthanasia is the 1991 Remelink Report, which showed that pain was a factor motivating requests for euthanasia in less than half of all cases. More importantly, pain was the sole motivating factor in just 5% of euthanasia cases. A study of physicians who care for nursing-home patients in the Netherlands found that pain was the main rationale in only eleven percent of euthanasia requests. In the U.S., a Washington state study of doctors who performed euthanasia or assisted suicide found that pain figured in only thirty-five percent of the requests.. According to Dr. Ezekiel J.

Euthanasia might be needed for poor people who cannot access palliative care, the new Lithuanian Health Minister has suggested. Rimantė Šalaševičiūtė was sworn earlier this month, but already she has made waves by backing an open discussion of the legalisation of euthanasia.. Without making any specific proposals, she told local media that Lithuania was not a welfare state with palliative care available for all and that euthanasia might be an option for people who did not want to torment relatives with the spectacle of their suffering.. The minister has also raised the idea of euthanasia for children. She noted that this option had been approved for Belgian children after a long public debate. It was an option which might be appropriate in Lithuania as well after public debate.. Ms Šalaševičiūtė will face an uphill battle in her campaign to introduce Lithuanians to euthanasia.

Christian Medical Comment: July 2012Christian Medical Comment: July 2012
Published literature has not discerned end-of-life palliative versus life-shortening effects of pharmacologically maintaining continuous deep sedation until death (i.e., dying in deep sleep) compared with common sedation practices relieving distress in the final conscious phase of dying. Continuous deep sedation predictably suppresses brainstem vital centers and shortens life. Continuous deep sedation remains controversial as palliation for existential suffering and in elective death requests by discontinuation of chronic ventilation or circulatory support with mechanical devices. Continuous deep sedation contravenes the double-effect principle because: (1) it induces permanent coma (intent of action) for the contingency relief of suffering and for social isolation (desired outcomes) and (2) because of its predictable and proportional life-shortening effect. Continuous deep sedation should be distinguished from common sedation practices for palliation and characterized instead as ...

OBJECTIVE: Many patients are admitted to the ICU at or near the end of their lives. Consequently, the increasingly common debate regarding physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia holds implications for the practice of critical care medicine. The objective of this article is to explore core ethical issues related to physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia from the perspective of healthcare professionals and ethicists on both sides of the debate. SYNTHESIS: We identified four issues highlighting the key areas of ethical tension central to evaluating physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia in medical practice: 1) the benefit or harm of death itself, 2) the relationship between physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia and withholding or withdrawing life support, 3) the morality of a physician deliberately causing death, and 4) the management of conscientious objection related to physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia in the critical care setting ...

Despite increasing legalization of euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide (PAS) worldwide, the practice remains relatively rare and, when carried out, is primarily motivated by psychological factors such as loss of autonomy or enjoyment of life, rather than physical pain. A new comprehensive assessment of data from around the world shows that in areas where they are legal, only 0.3 to 4.6 percent of deaths result from euthanasia or PAS, with more than 70 percent of cases involving patients with cancer.

Foster Kennedy: Euthanasia for Natures Mistakes up to the age of 5 | Eugenics and Other EvilsFoster Kennedy: Euthanasia for Natures Mistakes up to the age of 5 | Eugenics and Other Evils
Kennedys address at the 97th annual meeting of the American Psychiatric Association in 1941 encapsulates well how the acceptance of evolution and utilitarian thinking are tied into arguments for eugenics (and euthanasia), which is ironic, of course, since many advocates for euthanasia deny such connections and modern proponents of evolution become apoplectic at the insinuation that their viewpoint is connected, even in a small way, with the horrors of the past. Their dishonesty does not bode well for humanity.. Foster Kennedy: The Problem of Social Control of the Congenital Defective: Education, Sterilization, Euthanasia. Delivered at the 97th annual meeting of the APA in 1941 in Richmond, Virginia, May 5-9.. It would be improper, I am sure, for their [the feebleminded] disposal to lay down any such arbitrary law as has come into existence in Germany by dictatorial method.

The history and legalization process of CBD - CBD GuideThe history and legalization process of CBD - CBD Guide
CBD is a naturally occurring substance in cannabis plants. Unlike cannabinoids, tetrahydrocannabinol does not have psychoactive activity. In short, THC is a substance contained in cannabis. On the other hand, the CBD has no effect on the spirit. But according to more and more medical professionals, the CBD does have legitimate medical uses.. Legalization of cannabis can be divided into: Legalization of recreational cannabis and legalization of medical marijuana.. The legalization of medical marijuana means that citizens can only obtain certain doses of marijuana or cannabinoid products from state-licensed pharmacies for medicinal purposes through medical cards issued by doctors according to local laws.. Legalization of marijuana according to link includes planting, selling, transporting and holding legalization.. The Netherlands had been tolerant of cannabis until February, when it was legalized. Uruguayan residents were able to buy and hold 40 grams of cannabis a month from a state-licensed ...

Pet Portal : Summerlin Animal Hospital
What Is Euthanasia?. Euthanasia is the painless, humane termination of life. There are times when medical science has exhausted all of its capabilities and euthanasia is the only way to prevent an animal from suffering needlessly. However, the decision regarding when to euthanize is fraught with medical, financial, ethical, religious, moral, and sometimes legal considerations. Euthanasia is therefore a medical procedure that needs to be discussed (however painful that discussion may be) and considered fully before a final decision is made.. How Is Euthanasia Performed?. Most veterinarians use a concentrated solution of a barbiturate, administered as an injection into a vein, to perform euthanasia on a pet. The medication enters the circulation immediately, and it generally stops heart and brain function very quickly. Most pets fall quietly asleep within a few seconds, followed quickly by termination of heart and brain function. However, some animals may experience an excitement phase as the ...

End-of-Life Decision Making | The Royal Society of Canada
End-of-Life Decision Making is an issue wrapped in controversy and contradictions for Canadians. Most people in this country want to die at home, but few do; most believe planning for dying is important and should be started while people are healthy, but almost no one does it. And while most Canadians support the decriminalization of voluntary euthanasia and assisted suicide, both remain illegal under the Criminal Code of Canada. Assisted dying is a critically important public policy issue, where opinion, practice and the law seem out of alignment. The Royal Society of Canada, a national organization of distinguished scholars, artists and scientists, believes the time has come for a national debate on end-of-life decision making. It commissioned us, a panel of six Canadian and international experts on bioethics, clinical medicine, health law and policy, and philosophy, to prepare this report-both to trigger a national conversation on end-of-life issues and contribute material for those ...

The New Dr. Deaths Marketing Scheme - United Families International
Australian right-to-die advocate Dr. Philip Nitschke is holding a workshop on voluntary euthanasia in Britain. Dr. Death, a moniker known to many Australians, sells euthanasia kits through his organization, Exit International, but he claims that no profit is made. Ironically, the doctor denies promoting euthanasia, despite having assisted in four suicides in Australias Northern Territory.. Dr. Nitschkes 10-day workshop period transpires as Britain deliberates on the issue of assisted suicide. Amid the heated euthanasia debate, the British Director of Public Prosecutions released guidelines which determine when prosecution is unlikely in suicide cases just last month. This includes instances when the victims decision is voluntary, clear, settled and informed, and the person assisting acts wholly and compassionately.. But how can killing with intention, even if it is consensual on behalf of the victim, be defined as compassionate?. Nitschke, against British public policy, shows people how ...

Washington, DC: The enactment of adult-use [cannabis] legalization laws is not associated with any significant increase in cannabis-related activity in neighboring states and counties, according to a federally funded report published by the nonprofit Justice Research and Statistics Association and first reported by Marijuana Moment.. The study, entitled Measuring the Criminal Justice System Impacts of Marijuana Legalization and Decriminalization Using State Data, assessed the impact of adult-use regulation schemes on criminal justice resources in both legalization states and neighboring non-legalization states..

Reaffirm Catholic health care in face of euthanasia
There are two principles that we operate from. One is that we dont kill people, but the other one is that we dont abandon people.. Miller was a keynote speaker at a conference organized by the bishops of Saskatchewan to address the challenges of providing pastoral care in an era of euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide. Bishop Noël Simard of the Diocese of Valleyview, Quebec, also spoke during the one-day workshop at the Cathedral of the Holy Family in Saskatoon, exploring end of life issues and formation of conscience (see related article).. Born in Edmonton, Miller completed his doctorate in moral theology at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana, and then spent 16 years as a clinical bioethicist working at St. Pauls Hospital in Saskatoon. Presently serving as the provincial of the English-speaking Redemptorists of Canada, Miller also works at the centre for clinical ethics at St. Joseph and St. Michael hospitals in Toronto..

Paris, France, Mar 3, 2020 / 07:00 pm (CNA).- Asia Bibi is a Pakistani Catholic woman who was sentenced to death in 2010 for blasphemy against Islam. After more than eight years in prison, she was acquitted by the Supreme Court of Pakistan in 2018.. I was accused because of the name of Jesus and I knew I would be freed because of Jesus, Bibi said at a Paris press conference last week.. Bibi said that during her time on death row, her faith was always strong because I knew that God was with me, God never leaves you alone, he always accompanies you. Together with French journalist Anne-Isabelle Tollet, Bibi has written her autobiography,Enfin Libre (Free at Last). The English edition is due out in September.. According to UCA News, Tollet campaigned for Bibis release and is the only journalist to interview her in Canada, where Bibi was granted refugee status last year.. Bibi has been living with her husband and two daughters in Canada since last May. Her refugee status is due to expire at ...

The Sunday Ramble - Voluntary Euthanasia and the Law - The Anna Raccoon ArchivesThe Sunday Ramble - Voluntary Euthanasia and the Law - The Anna Raccoon Archives
We hear a lot about rights these days. I would argue that save in very rare circumstances where the very safety of society is in peril, every man or woman has the right to live, but more than that, the right to live in dignity. I do not mean by that the right to have more than enough, or be protected from the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune that will inevitably buffet us all, or to be protected from folly, failure and accident or poverty. That would be naive, and would misunderstand the nature of the Universe. But an innocent man should not be treated with cruelty, inhumanity, or stripped of his dignity.. I would argue that Tony Nicklinson is an innocent man who is being treated in an inhumane way, albeit from the best of motives. So is Martin. Tony Nicklinson and Martin applied to the High Court seeking in essence a declaration that any person who assisted them in passing on from this life would be immune from a charge of murder.. The cases are tragic. Both gentlemen have suffered ...

I do not want the taxes I pay going to kill any person even if they want to die. I feel there should be help for those who want to end their life, counseling, support....wanting to end ones life should NOT be a crime, like in the Netherlands. As someone mentioned in past remarks this could be taken advantage of by people who want to make a profit. From what Ive read in scripture and what Ive seen personally, taking ones life is a personal choice, the state should not be involved in this kind of legislature. The medical model we have here in America is based on profit and that makes everything much more complicated regarding end of life care. Most folk just dont have the money or insurance to swing this on their own and thats just wrong. Medicine is so expensive now its frightening. Im getting older, way past 50s and experienced chronic pain for years and thought about how easy it would be to take a pill and go to sleep for good. I cant work, I am a burden and so on....

The Terminally Ill and Physician-Assisted Suicide
To the editor:. Imagine being a terminally ill patient, who is beyond human care and in excruciating pain. A neurosurgeon once showed a group of physicians and an ethicist a picture of a Vietnam casualty who had lost all four of his limbs in a landmine explosion. The catastrophe had reduced the soldier to a trunk with his face transfixed in horror.. Because of such devastating internal injuries, the soldier was not expected to make it through the year. In any event, this patient dies - whether by acts of nature or by the intentional acts of his physician.. On a whole, our social policy should allow terminal patients to seek help in death, because in a free society, such as ours, it should be a fundamental right to choose the time and manner of ones own death. The right to choose the course of ones death is as fundamental as the right to choose the course of ones own life.. Many times, I think that we safeguard our society, by not allowing controversial laws to be passed, because we are ...

Physician-Assisted SuicidePhysician-Assisted Suicide
Pro: Oregons nine-year experience with legalized physician-assisted death-not suicide-should reassure people that abuses have not occurred in Oregon. C&C President Barbara Coombs Lee told reporters, The practice has settled into a nice, safe, conservative practice. (AP, 3/8/07). Con: Oregons annual PAS reports do not prove that abuses have not occurred. They are based solely on reports by the doctors who prescribed the lethal drugs. The law gives no authorization to investigate unreported cases or cases of abuse and contains no penalties for doctors who do not comply with the law. Doctors who violate the law are not likely to tell on themselves.. Pro: The laws safeguards work.. Con: The safeguards were included only to get the bill passed. They do not provide any real protection for patients.. The law requires that the patient have a terminal disease that is expected to produce death within six months. Predictions of life-expectancy are highly unreliable. Isnt it probable that some ...

Emotional experiences for psychiatrists who are called upon to evaluate potential assisted suicide patients mental competency, appear to be more profound when they disqualify patients. Dr. Linda Ganzini described the painful experience of two patients whom she disqualified for the option of Oregons assisted suicide law.32She stated: These disqualifications resulted in extraordinary pain and anger for both of the patients and their families, which interfered with much-needed opportunities to resolve other emotional issues.33 Pain and anger is directed towards and felt by the evaluating psychiatrist. Such anger was energetically expressed by Kate Cheney, an Oregon PAS patient, whose evaluating psychiatrist told her, You cant make a decision for yourself and your life, because you are not in your right mind.34 Kate Cheneys angry response was Get out of my house. I cant believe you can tell me something like this.35 The significant anger towards the evaluating psychiatrist who ...

BIOETYMOLOGY : ORIGIN IN BIOMEDICAL TERMS: euthanasia
During the Second World War, the Nazis ran a Euthanasia Programme , an example of euphemism, under the direction of Philip Bouhler and Dr. Karl Brandt. The headquarters of the operation were at Tiergartenstrasse 4, Berlin and the code name for the program was derived from that address-T-4.. In practice it was used to exterminate lives unworthy of life as part of their racial hygiene concept and, as a result, at least 200,000 physically or mentally handicapped people were killed by medication, starvation, or in the gas chambers between 1939 and 1945. The victims were taken mainly from the medical institution and put to death ...

When Should You Consider Euthanasia for Your Pet?
It may be the first time you have caught yourself in such a position where you have to decide to put down your pet. Its normal to feel anxious and to want to postpone the process to another date. But when you know what to expect, you will feel more in control and understand that euthanasia is not a punishment but rather designed to help your pet.. So what should you expect once you give the vet permission to euthanize? You will be briefed on what the entire procedure entails. At this point, you can ask as many questions as you need to understand better whats about to happen.. The pet will be placed on the table or the floor on a comfortable blanket. If they are too aggressive or unsettled, the pet may be sedated first.. A vet nurse, technician, or assistant will gently hold the animal as the veterinarian begins the process. You may be asked to stand at a distance to avoid any surprise jumps or attacks from the pet in case they sense your fear.. The vet will inject sodium pentobarbital in the ...

Background: Debates over legalisation of physician-assisted suicide (PAS) or euthanasia often warn of a slippery slope, predicting abuse of people in vulnerable groups. To assess this concern, the authors examined data from Oregon and the Netherlands, the two principal jurisdictions in which physician-assisted dying is legal and data have been collected over a substantial period.. Methods: The data from Oregon (where PAS, now called death under the Oregon Death with Dignity Act, is legal) comprised all annual and cumulative Department of Human Services reports 1998-2006 and three independent studies; the data from the Netherlands (where both PAS and euthanasia are now legal) comprised all four government-commissioned nationwide studies of end-of-life decision making (1990, 1995, 2001 and 2005) and specialised studies. Evidence of any disproportionate impact on 10 groups of potentially vulnerable patients was sought.. Results: Rates of assisted dying in Oregon and in the Netherlands showed no ...

HBO film celebrates Jack Kevorkian - United Families International
In a long tradition of taking on controversial issues, HBO will be airing an original movie this month celebrating the life of Dr. Jack Kevorkian-or better known as Dr. Death. The film, You Dont Know Jack, stars Al Pacino as Jack Kevorkian alongside John Goodman, Susan Sarandon, and Danny Huston and follows the life and battles of the man who brought the issue of physician-assisted suicide into every home in the United States.. Kevorkian became famous in the 80s and 90s for being one of the most vocal and it could be argued theatrical supporters of the right to die and physician-assisted suicide. He claimed to have assisted in at least 130 suicides in his career and invented two machines, the Mercitron and Thanatron, designed to assist in the work.. Throughout the 90s, Kevorkian was tried several times for assisting suicides but was not found guilty until 1998, when he filmed the voluntary euthanasia of Thomas Youk and aired it on the TV-show 60 Minutes. He was found guilty of second-degree ...

By: Milan K. Sheth, M.A. in Biomedicine-Eastern Mennonite University The legality and ethics of palliative physician-assisted suicide (PAS) has been a controversial debate as individuals continue to question the righteousness of doctors assisting in the suicide of patients with a life expectancy of six months or less (1).

Euthanasia and assisted suicide (EAS) have been legally possible in the Netherlands since 2001, provided that statutory due care criteria are met, including: (a) voluntary and well-considered request; (b) unbearable suffering without prospect of improvement; (c) informing the patient; (d) lack of a reasonable alternative; (e) independent second physicians opinion. Unbearable suffering must have a medical basis, either somatic or psychiatric, but there is no requirement of limited life expectancy. All EAS cases must be reported and are scrutinised by regional review committees (RTE). The purpose of this study was to investigate whether any particular difficulties arise when the EAS due care criteria are applied to patients with an intellectual disability and/or autism spectrum disorder. The 416 case summaries available on the RTE website (2012-2016) were searched for intellectual disability (6) and autism spectrum disorder (3). Direct content analysis was used on these nine cases.

far richer moral texture than that suggested by adversarial procedure 11 The Court s vain attempt to justify the abortion license in terms of an all encompassing right of personal autonomy has begun to infect other areas of the law Thus the autonomy logic of the Court s 1992 Casey decision is now invoked as a warrant for a constitutional right to euthanasia And if it were followed to its conclusion this logic would require us to consider such profound human relationships as the bond between husband and wife or the bond between parents and children to be nothing more than matters of contract with the claims of the autonomous individual trumping all other claims Enshrined by the Court to legalize abortion on demand this autonomy logic threatens to give us an America in which the only actors of consequence are the individual and the state no other community including the community of husband and wife or the community of parents and children will have effective constitutional standing 12 The Supreme ...

1. Humane euthanasia. Swine producers are seeking a non-physical manner in which to humanely euthanize piglets. ARS researchers in West Lafayette, IN have found that a unique combination of gases are able to anesthetize piglets prior to euthanasia with a second more harmful gas to allow for humane euthanasia. Development of this technique for on-farm use will allow pigs to be humanely euthanized. It will also decrease the use of physical techniques of piglet euthanasia which are often criticized by animal rights groups and often found to be objectionable to perform by farm workers. 2. Osteoporosis in laying hens. Currently, most laying hens are housed in conventional cages in the United States, which limits their movement and ability to perform natural behavior, such as roosting, which can cause osteoporosis (a progressive decrease in mineralized structural bone). Osteoporosis causes 20 to 35% of all mortalities in caged White Leghorn hens. Reducing or eliminating osteoporosis associated with ...

Euthanasia of day-old chicks with carbon dioxide and argon | Veterinary Record
The efficacy for the euthanasia of day-old chicks of mixtures of carbon dioxide and air, or carbon dioxide and argon containing 1, 2 or 5 per cent residual oxygen, or argon containing 1 or 2 per cent residual oxygen was tested in three experiments. The time to the onset of unconsciousness of individual chicks, determined from the time to loss of posture, was similar during their exposure to 2 per cent oxygen in argon, 20, 30 or 40 per cent carbon dioxide in argon with 2 per cent residual oxygen, or 90 per cent carbon dioxide in air. The exposure of chicks in batches of 20 to a mixture of 20, 30 or 40 per cent carbon dioxide in argon resulted in the death of all the chicks within two minutes. However, a residual oxygen level of 5 per cent in these mixtures resulted in the survival of some chicks for longer than two minutes. With argon alone the level of residual oxygen was critical; less than 2 per cent was essential to achieve 100 per cent mortality within three minutes, and a rise from 2 to ...

Vancouver, Canada, Sep 30, 2019 / 05:01 pm (CNA).- After Alan Nichols death by voluntary euthanasia at a British Columbia hospital in July, his family have questioned the imprecision of Canadas requirements for euthanasia and assisted suicide, which include having a grievous and irremediable medical condition.. They doubt Nichols was able to give informed consent to his euthanization, and maintain his natural death was not reasonably foreseeable.. According to a Sept. 24 article in CTV News based on accounts from Nichols family and a neighbor, Nichols was admitted to Chilliwack General Hospital, about 60 miles east of Vancouver, after he was found in poor physical condition at his home in mid-June.. Nichols, who was 61, was euthanized July 26 at the hospital by medical staff who delivered three injections.. He didnt have a life-threatening disease. He was capable of getting around. He was capable of doing almost anything that you had to do to survive, his brother, Gary Nichols, told CTV ...

Thesis on Legalization of Marijuana Essay - 1124 WordsThesis on Legalization of Marijuana Essay - 1124 Words
The economic woes that plague the United States will be invigorated through the Legalization of Marijuana. Embracing cannabis for personal, medical, and industrial use will encourage economic growth and stability. The war on drugs in America consumes millions of dollars annually. Associating taxes in conjunction with eliminating risk of illegal activity will increase consumer confidence whereas the ease of growing requirements will boost substantial profit. American economy can attain prosperity through Marijuana legalization. The history of Marijuana embargo is rich with debate and the future is known as cannabis commerce. Prohibition of the nineteenth century ushered in the popularity of breaking the law to obtain and consume alcoholic beverages. Elevated crime levels created the belief that alcohol was to blame for the horrendous acts upon society. Marijuana suffers the same judgment in America today, targeted as the primary reason for the ills that plague society. A growing number of ...

2. The Church teaches that abortion or euthanasia is a grave sin. The Encyclical Letter Evangelium vitae, with reference to judicial decisions or civil laws that authorize or promote abortion or euthanasia, states that there is a grave and clear obligation to oppose them by conscientious objection. [...] In the case of an intrinsically unjust law, such as a law permitting abortion or euthanasia, it is therefore never licit to obey it, or to take part in a propaganda campaign in favour of such a law or vote for it (no. 73). Christians have a grave obligation of conscience not to cooperate formally in practices which, even if permitted by civil legislation, are contrary to Gods law. Indeed, from the moral standpoint, it is never licit to cooperate formally in evil. [...] This cooperation can never be justified either by invoking respect for the freedom of others or by appealing to the fact that civil law permits it or requires it (no. 74 ...

Cost-Conscious Cancer Survivors Skip CareCost-Conscious Cancer Survivors Skip Care
MONDAY, June 14 (HealthDay News) -- Millions of Americans with a history of cancer, particularly people under age 65, are delaying or skimping on medical care because of worries about the cost of treatment, a new study suggests. The finding raises troubling questions about the long-term survival and quality of life of the 12 million adults in the United States whose lives have been forever changed by a diagnosis of cancer.. I think its concerning because we recognize that cancer survivors have many medical needs that persist for years after their diagnosis and treatment, said study lead author Kathryn E. Weaver, an assistant professor in the Department of Social Sciences & Health Policy at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, N.C.. The report was published online June 14 in Cancer, a journal of the American Cancer Society.. Cost concerns have posed a threat to cancer survivorship for some time, particularly with the advent of new, life-prolonging treatments.. Dr. ...

A political action committee called Safer Arizona was set to file a marijuana legalization initiative with state officials Thursday.

The Terrible Choice
One key point - when they looked at who were the people who reported the most perceived need for hospice services, they looked at who were eligible for hospice care based on treatment preferences. They defined these patients (again, all of whom had less than 6 month prognoses without further treatment) as those who said they would NOT want any anti-cancer treatment even if it meant that it would guarantee them an almost 100% chance of surviving 6 months. Ie - those who would reject all life-prolonging treatment and are therefore eligible for hospice care based on goals (as well as prognosis based on the studys inclusion criteria). Notably, 13% of these patients (all of whom were receiving anti-cancer treatments) said they would not want any treatments even if it meant a guaranteed 6 month survival. This suggests that these 13% were receiving treatments they didnt actually want, thought they were receiving curative treatments, didnt understand the research questions, or some combination ...

Attitudes - cognitive representations of our evaluation of ourselves, other people, things, actions, events, ideas - and attitude change have been a central concern in social psychology since the discipline began. People can - and do - have attitudes on an infinite range of things but what are attitudes, how do we form them and how can they be modified? This book provides the student with a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the basic issues in the psychological study of attitudes. Drawing on research from Europe and the USA it presents up-to-date coverage of the key issues that will be encountered in this area, including attitude formation and change, functions of attitudes, attitude measurement, attitudes as temporary constructs, persuasion processes and prediction of behaviour from attitudes ...

Bioethics | The Center for Bioethics & Human DignityBioethics | The Center for Bioethics & Human Dignity
Bioethics is a branch of ethical inquiry that examines the nature of biological and technological discoveries and the responsible use of biomedical advances, with particular emphasis upon their moral implications for our individual and common humanity.. The term bioethics, originally coined by Von Rensselaer in 1970, has evolved from a more specific emphasis upon medical ethics to include a wide range of issues such as allocation of healthcare resources, end-of-life treatment, euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide, reproductive technologies, genetic intervention, stem cell research, cloning, neuroscience, and other emerging biotechnologies. While a branch of ethical inquiry, bioethics is interdisciplinary in nature integrating such diverse fields as the life sciences, medicine, biotechnology, philosophy, theology, public policy, and law.. The articles in this section explore some of the broader issues involved in bioethics, including theological and philosophical explorations central to ...

Phil Murphy signed the Aid in Dying for the Terminally Ill Act on April 12, requiring either a psychiatrist or psychologist to determine that a patient has the mental capacity to make the final decision.. Allowing residents with terminal illnesses to make end-of-life choices for themselves is the right thing to do, said Murphy at the time. We are providing terminally ill patients and their families with the humanity, dignity, and respect that they so richly deserve at the most difficult times any of us will face.. Physician-assisted suicide differs from euthanasia, which is defined as the act of assisting people with their death in order to end their suffering, but without the backing of a controlling legal authority..

The term twenty-twenty conjures up thoughts of the New Year, elections, hindsight and visual acuity. It incites me to make sure we all see clearly Oregons end-of-life landscape, the path the culture of assisted suicide activism is aiming to take us, and the threat that trajectory poses to all of us.. Recent legislative activity demonstrates the pro-euthanasia efforts in Oregon. These efforts seek to expand assisted suicide which would increase risk to the vulnerable, namely the old, disabled, seriously ill, discouraged, or others deemed to be lives not worth saving. I hope you will recognize the importance of acting now, for some day our loved ones and any of us may be the vulnerable ones.. Twenty-five years ago, Oregon citizens approved physician-assisted suicide (PAS). The general public expected that guidelines, so-called safeguards, would limit the use of assisted suicide to people in dire situations. Many though suspected this new law was just a foot in the door to general euthanasia. ...

I presume you mean section 73, which reads as follows:. 73. Abortion and euthanasia are thus crimes which no human law can claim to legitimize. There is no obligation in conscience to obey such laws; instead there is a grave and clear obligation to oppose them by conscientious objection. From the very beginnings of the Church, the apostolic preaching reminded Christians of their duty to obey legitimately constituted public authorities (cf. Rom 13:1-7; 1 Pet 2:13-14), but at the same time it firmly warned that we must obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29). In the Old Testament, precisely in regard to threats against life, we find a significant example of resistance to the unjust command of those in authority. After Pharaoh ordered the killing of all newborn males, the Hebrew midwives refused. They did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but let the male children live (Ex 1:17). But the ultimate reason for their action should be noted: the midwives feared God (ibid.). It is precisely ...

Euthanasia and assisted suicide involve extinguishing human life. Research shows that humans have a basic instinct against killing other humans, which might be a source of the widely shared moral intuition that its wrong to do so. People who oppose euthanasia and assisted-suicide believe these interventions are inherently wrong - they cant be morally justified, and that even compassionate motives do not make them ethically acceptable - the ends do not justify the means.

Ohio has 22 killers set for execution -- but no lethal drugsOhio has 22 killers set for execution -- but no lethal drugs
DPN opposes the death penalty in all cases, unconditionally, regardless of the method chosen to kill the condemned prisoner. The death penalty is inherently cruel and degrading, an archaic punishment that is incompatible with human dignity. To end the death penalty is to abandon a destructive diversionary and divisive public policy that is not consistent with widely held values. The death penalty not only runs the risk of irrevocable error, it is also costly to the public purse as well as in social and psychological terms.The death penalty has not been proved to have a special deterrent effect. It tends to be applied in a discriminatory way on grounds of race and class. It denies the possibility of reconciliation and rehabilitation. It prolongs the suffering of the murder victims family and extends that suffering to the loved ones of the condemned prisoner. It diverts resources that could be better used to work against violent crime and assist those affected by it ...

New Jersey: Lawmakers Place Legalization Ballot Question Before Voters - NORMLNew Jersey: Lawmakers Place Legalization Ballot Question Before Voters - NORML
Trenton, NJ: Super-majorities of the New Jersey Assembly and Senate decided on Monday to place a marijuana legalization ballot question before voters in 2020.. Commenting on the legislative action, Garden State NORML Executive Director Charlana McKeithen said: We support any move beyond prohibition. Now marijuana consumers and anyone who supports reform can cast a vote for freedom. The question will appear as a constitutional amendment on the November election ballot. Senators voted 24 to 16 in favor of the effort, while members of the Assembly voted 49 to 24. State law requires that three-fifths of lawmakers in both chambers approve a resolution to place an amendment on the ballot. The ballot question will read: Do you approve amending the Constitution to legalize a controlled form of marijuana called cannabis? Only adults at least 21 years of age could use cannabis. The State commission created to oversee the States medical cannabis program would also oversee the new, personal use ...

Non-medical marijuana will likely be legalized across Canada in 2016. Legalization was among Justin Trudeaus campaign promises.

We are working together on a straightforward goal: to see legal, non-medical marijuana warehoused and distributed through the existing Liquor Distribution Branch system and sold in B.C. alongside alcohol in liquor stores..
