Professional Ethics in Obstetrics and Gynecology
A comprehensive framework for professional ethics in obstetrics and gynecology, detailing its philosophical origins and application in clinical practice. The core mission involves defining ethically permissible and obligatory conduct using disciplined ethical reasoning, particularly focusing on the "Quest for Reliability" over absolute certainty in moral judgments. Key sections analyze foundational concepts such as the principles of beneficence and respect for autonomy, the necessary professional virtues, and the nuanced process of informed consent and refusal for patients with varying capacities. A central theme is the ethical concept of the fetus as a patient, which requires obstetricians to balance competing maternal and fetal interests in contentious areas like induced abortion, conscientious objection, and determining the limits of care at periviability and futility. Finally, the work extends the discussion to broader responsibilities, including managing conflicts of interest and advocating for healthcare justice in organizational policy and resource allocation.
