This book moves away from the frameworks that have traditionally guided ethical decision-making in the Western clinical setting, towards an inclusive, non-coercive and, reflective dialogic approach to moral decision-making. Inspired in part by Jürgen Habermas’s discourse theory of morality and principles of communicative action, the book offers a proportionist approach as a way of balancing out the wisdom in traditional frameworks, set in the actual reality of the clinical situation at hand. Putting this approach into practice requires having a conversation, a dialogue or a discourse, with collaboration amongst all the stakeholders. The aim of the dialogue is to reach consensus in the decision, via mutual understanding of the values held by the patient and others whom they see as significant. This book aims to underscore the moral philosophical foundations for having a meaningful conversation. Life and Death Decision in the Clinical Setting is especially relevant in our contemporary era, characterised medically by an ever-increasing armamentarium of life-sustaining technology, but also by increasing multiculturalism, a multiplicity of faiths, and increasing value pluralism.

This volume constitutes the papers and discussions from a symposium on "Societal Risk Assessment: How Safe is Safe Enough?" held at the General Motors Research Laboratories on October 8-9, 1979. This symposium was the twenty-fourth in an annual series sponsored by the Research Laboratories. Initi ated in 1957, these symposia have as their objective the promotion of the interchange ofknowledge among specialists from many allied disciplines in rapidly developing or changing areas ofscience or technology. Attendees characteristically represent the academic, government, and industrial institutions that are noted for their ongoing activities in the particular area of interest. The objective of this symposium was to develop a balanced view of the current status of societal risk assessment's role in the public policy process and then to establish, if possible, future directions of research. Accordingly, the symposium was structured in two dimensions; certainty versus uncertainty and the subjective versus the objective. Furthermore, people representing extremely diverse discip lines concerned with the perception, quantification, and abatement of risks were brought together to provide an environment that stimulated the exchange of ideas and experiences. The keys to this exchange were the invited papers, arranged into four symposium sessions. These papers appear in this volume in the order of their presentation. The discussions that in turn followed from the papers are also included.

Mental Training: The Art of Life and Death Decision-Making! By Nicholas Black (Sports Psychology; Sports Science: Martial Arts & Self-Defense) *Learn to make LIFE or DEATH decisions NOW! In life or death decision-making scenarios, there's usually only a small list of possible outcomes that are positive. Time is not on your side. Luck doesn't exist. All you have is your training and experience to guide you. You either have one or the other-Training . . . or Experience. There is no middle ground. If you act, instead of re-acting, you can raise the statistical chances for your survival and the survival of those you intend to help. A slow reaction significantly reduces your chances of living. INACTION means YOU DIE. My name is Nicholas Black, and I'm going to show you how to deal with fear, by showing you how we've dealt with it. I've been shot at, stabbed, stranded, left for dead, hunted, stalked, and overwhelmed. I'm not a guru or a master at anything in particular. But I've had good coaches. I've trained with the toughest and most astute observers of success conditioning, military strategy, unconventional warfare, sports hypnotherapy, Mixed-Martial Arts (MMA), and emergency response. I was a bodyguard, a member of the Navy and the French Foreign Legion, a bouncer, and a fighter. Since I'm admittedly not exceptional at anything in particular, that should reassure you that the basic guidance I can offer you is actually useful. There is some merit in my words simply because I'm here to give you these words. Our idea with this book is to give you tools you can use (IDLE CAR and OCD decision-making processes), right now, that improve your chances for survival by giving you a process and a mental game for dealing with life or death decision-making scenarios. I'm going to use events that occurred to me personally, as well as situations that my closest friends and comrades experienced. I will walk you into situations that had limited choices due to circumstances beyond our control. Many of these decisions were life or death, and others are designed so that you can experience traumatic situations. Our goal with this book isn't to tell you what to do in a life or death decision-making scenario. Rather, it's to prepare you mentally to make the best decisions you can when time isn't on your side. That's what we're all fighting for, isn't it . . . more time. More time to choose the right path, and more time to make the right decision. REMEMBER: You either have TRAINING or EXPERIENCE! Throughout our lives we face challenges and obstacles, and constantly surpass them. Your mind is a muscle, and decision-making under fire is a skill. Talent can't be taught, but a skill can be. You should read this book with the goal of developing the skills necessary to make life or death decisions. Train your body and mind to assist you in this process, rather than getting in the way, as our bodies and chemistry all too often do. We're going to provide you with a basic fundamental understanding of your body's biological driving forces, and then look at examples and scenarios that relate to the subject matter we are studying. This book can be used as a resource for training your mind in a variety of ways. If you have particular issues that need to be dealt with, this book will have you training almost immediately. If you want a broad understanding of the underpinnings of Life or Death decision-making then you've also got the right book. This book is a mental training guide and introduction into high-stress decision-making, or just as a list of odd and incredible life situations that you may learn from or relate to. With this training you can develop confidence, coping mechanisms, and the underlying mental toughness that's necessary to make life or death decisions quickly and confidently, no matter what the situation. NOW . . . LET'S BEGIN YOUR TRAINING!

Integrating theory with case studies, this book examines the practical application of moral theory in clinical decision-making through 40 composite cases based on actual clinical experience. Complex, realistic, and challenging, these examples contain the multiplicity of factors faced in clinical crises, making this a superb exploration of the ways in which theory relates to actual life-or-death situations.

Seven in ten Americans over the age of age of sixty who require medical decisions in the final days of their life lack the capacity to make them. For many of us, our biggest, life-and-death decisions—literally—will therefore be made by someone else. They will decide whether we live or die; between long life and quality of life; whether we receive heroic interventions in our final hours; and whether we die in a hospital or at home. They will determine whether our wishes are honored and choose between fidelity to our interests and what is best for themselves or others. Yet despite their critical role, we know remarkably little about how our loved ones decide for us. Speaking for the Dying tells their story, drawing on daily observations over more than two years in two intensive care units in a diverse urban hospital. From bedsides, hallways, and conference rooms, you will hear, in their own words, how physicians really talk to families and how they respond. You will see how decision makers are selected, the interventions they weigh in on, the information they seek and evaluate, the values and memories they draw on, the criteria they weigh, the outcomes they choose, the conflicts they become embroiled in, and the challenges they face. Observations also provide insight into why some decision makers authorize one aggressive intervention after the next while others do not—even on behalf of patients with similar problems and prospects. And they expose the limited role of advance directives in structuring the process decision makers follow or the outcomes that result. Research has consistently found that choosing life or death for another is one of the most difficult decisions anyone can face, sometimes haunting families for decades. This book shines a bright light on a role few of us will escape and offers steps that patients and loved ones, health care providers, lawyers, and policymakers could undertake before it is too late.

No assertion can command attention in time of emergency like, 'It's a matter of life and death'. The problem of making decisions that can affect the likelihood of death is one of the most perplexing facing the analyst. As individuals, we are often called upon to make decisions that affect our safety, and other are increasingly making those decisions on our behalf. Yet most present approaches to life and death-decision making concentrate on the value of an individual's life to others rather than to himself. These approaches are both technically and ethically questionable. In this report, we develop a model for an individual who wishes to make life and death decisions on his own behalf or who wishes to delegate them to his agents. We show that an individual can use this model if he is willing to trade between the quality and the quantity of his life. A simplified version requires him to establish preference between the resources he disposes during his lifetime and the length of it, to establish probability assessments on these quantities, to characterize his ability to turn present cash into future income, and to specify his risk attitude. We can use this model to determine both what an individual would have to be paid to assume a given risk and what he would pay to avoid a given risk. The risks may range from those that are virtually infinitesimal to those that are imminently life threatening. We show that this model resolves a paradox posed by previously proposed models. In this model there is no inconsistency between an individual's refusing any amount of money, however large, to incur a large enough risk, and yet being willing to pay only a finite amount, his current wealth, to avoid certain death.
