Terminally Ill Patients

Abstract: Palliative treatment is the effort of physicians to ease the suffering of terminally ill patients. This is rather ignored because physicians give their priority to cure, prevent, promote, and rehabilitate patients based on the principle of beneficience. The palliative treatment should be paid attention to due to the sophistication of the medical profession. However, it is bypassed when faced with terminally ill  patients. This palliative treatment should be intergrated with the four priorities mentioned above, which are already stated in the Indonesian Medical Code of Ethics. Nowadays, modern medical technics have been applied in the management of patients, including terminally ill patients; therefore, it is not ethical to allow a terminally ill patient to undergo suffering to the end of his/her life. Keywords: palliative care, terminal patient, suffering.     Abstrak: Terapi paliatif merupakan upaya para dokter untuk mengurangi penderitaan pasien terminal. Tugas ini agak terabaikan karena para dokter lebih mengutamakan tugas kuratif, preventif, promotif, dan rehabilitasi berdasarkan the principle of beneficence. Terapi paliatif ini perlu mendapat perhatian karena sehebat apapun profesi kedokteran untuk mempertahankan kehidupan pasien, namun suatu saat akan berhenti bila menghadapi pasien terminal. Tugas terapi paliatif harus terintegrasi dengan keempat tugas di atas yang memang merupakan tugas utama dalam profesi kedokteran sebagaimana tercantum dalam Kode Etik Kedokteran Indonesia. Dewasa ini, tehnik kedokteran modern sekarang menyediakan banyak kemungkinan untuk meringankan penderitaan pasien terminal, sehingga tidak etis membiarkan pasien terminal dalam menjalani akhir hidupnya dengan sangat menderita. Kata kunci: terapi paliatif, pasien terminal, penderitaan.

AbstractAlthough Boyer & Petersen's (B&P's) cataloguing of and evolutionary explanations for folk-economic beliefs is important and valuable, the authors fail to connect their theories to existing explanations for why people do not think like economists. For instance, people often have moral intuitions akin to principles of fairness and justice that conflict with utilitarian approaches to resource allocation.

Purpose Palliative care is a philosophy of care that encompasses holistic, patient-centric care involving patients and their family members and loved ones. Palliative care patients often have complex needs. A common challenge in managing patients near their end of life is the complexity of navigating clinical decisions and finding achievable and realistic goals of care that are in line with the values and wishes of patients. This often results in differing opinions and conflicts within the multidisciplinary team. Conclusion This article describes a tool derived from the biopsychosocial model and the 4-quadrant ethical model. The authors describe the use of this tool in managing a patient who wishes to have fried chicken despite aspiration risk and how this tool was used to encourage discussions and reduce conflict and distress within the multidisciplinary team.
