Part I provides an overview of maternal and infant mortality rates in the United States, highlighting the disparities faced by women of color and low-income women. Part II discusses the benefits of doula services, including reduced rates of cesarean delivery, preterm birth, and other complications. Part III reviews current coverage of doula services in various states, both in the public and private sector. Part IV critiques the current regulatory scheme for doula services and …
Limits On Biomedical Research: Whether, Why, And How, Christine Grady
Limits On Biomedical Research: Whether, Why, And How, Christine Grady
Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine
This article examines the limitations of laws and regulations in regulating biomedical research. While laws and regulations can serve as guardrails to limit certain research studies, they are often blunt instruments that struggle to keep up with the rapid pace of scientific progress. Moreover, laws in one jurisdiction may not be binding on others, making it difficult to regulate the global scientific community. The article argues that regulatory parsimony should be exercised, imposing regulations only where they work and not where they are unhelpful. The article also explores the ethical considerations surrounding biomedical research and its impact on society, including …
A Thousand Views Of The Cathedral: The Law, Politics, And Statistics Of Pandemic Dashboards, Jeff Lingwall, Tj Bliss
A Thousand Views Of The Cathedral: The Law, Politics, And Statistics Of Pandemic Dashboards, Jeff Lingwall, Tj Bliss
Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine
This Article explores the law, politics, and statistics of communicating data through the thousands of state, county, school district, and higher-education dashboards created in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic. Using a nationally distributed questionnaire and series of interviews with dashboard managers and stakeholders, we offer a wide-ranging view of data visualization practice in response to COVID-19. We pair this evidence with a survey of almost 3,000 entities responsible for public health communication, which resulted in collection of over 1,100 COVID-19 dashboards from a spectrum of government actors and private parties. We evaluate how legal issues were perceived and acted …
Eula, Or Eulogy? Reckoning End User License Agreements And Near-Future Cyborgs, Owen Carpenter
Eula, Or Eulogy? Reckoning End User License Agreements And Near-Future Cyborgs, Owen Carpenter
Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine
Integrated biotechnology is a quickly-approaching future legal issue that will blur the line between technology and person. The technology will likely run through some kind of software, and users of the technology will likely need to agree to some type of licensing agreement to use the software. End User License Agreements (“EULAs”) as they exist today have terms and clauses that will be problematic when applied to an implanted artificial heart, a replacement for the human eye that enhances vision, or other types of integrated technology. Current FDA regulation and EULAs are insufficient to deal with the problems that technology …
Splitting Deceased Donor Livers To Double The Transplant Benefits: Addressing The Legal, Ethical, And Practical Challenges, Evelyn M. Tenenbaum, Jed Adam Gross
Splitting Deceased Donor Livers To Double The Transplant Benefits: Addressing The Legal, Ethical, And Practical Challenges, Evelyn M. Tenenbaum, Jed Adam Gross
Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine
Liver transplantation is different from transplanting other solid organs because some recipients can achieve good long-term outcomes with only half of a donor’s liver (or less). This means that some deceased donor livers can be split, saving two lives instead of one. However, although more than 10 percent of cadaveric livers meet the criteria for splitting, only about 1.5 percent are actually split in the United States. This article identifies a set of ethical, legal, and logistical challenges to a more extensive use of split liver transplantation (SLT) within existing legal frameworks. We then discuss how each of these challenges …
From Roe V. Wade To Dobbs V. Jackson – Between Women’S Rights Discourse And Obligations Discourse, Pnina Lifshitz-Aviram, Yehezkel Margalit
From Roe V. Wade To Dobbs V. Jackson – Between Women’S Rights Discourse And Obligations Discourse, Pnina Lifshitz-Aviram, Yehezkel Margalit
Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine
Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court published its decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization overturning the landmark abortion case, Roe v. Wade. In 1973, two groundbreaking abortion decisions were handed down by the same Court – Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton – recognizing a woman’s fundamental constitutional right to obtain an abortion until fetal viability. The ensuring nationwide judiciary recognition of women’s basic rights was abruptly shaken by the Dobbs v. Jackson’s ruling that “the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion.” Dobbs’ reversal of these prior cases has created a legal, political, and public upheaval. …
Opioid Lawsuits: Is There Any End In Sight?, Richard C. Ausness
Opioid Lawsuits: Is There Any End In Sight?, Richard C. Ausness
Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine
The opioid epidemic has led to a surge in litigation against opioid manufacturers, distributors, and retail pharmacy chains. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the legal landscape surrounding opioid lawsuits. It discusses the chemical nature of opioids, marketing practices of Purdue Pharma and others, and the largely unsuccessful personal injury cases brought against Purdue by private individuals prior to 2014. The article also examines the public nuisance doctrine—the most popular liability theory invoked by government plaintiffs—and analyzes three of the most important litigation pathways: (1) suits by individual government entities, usually states; (2) multidistrict litigation (MDL); and (3) bankruptcy …

Evidence For Community Face Masking To Limit The Spread Of Sars-Cov-2: A Critical Review, Ian T. Liu, Vinay Prasad, Jonathan D. Darrow
Evidence For Community Face Masking To Limit The Spread Of Sars-Cov-2: A Critical Review, Ian T. Liu, Vinay Prasad, Jonathan D. Darrow
Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine
The use of facemasks in community settings has become an accepted public policy response to decrease disease transmission during the COVID-19 pandemic. Yet evidence of facemask efficacy is based primarily on observational studies that are subject to confounding and on mechanistic studies that rely on surrogate endpoints (such as droplet dispersion) as proxies for disease transmission. The available clinical evidence of facemask efficacy is of low quality and the best available clinical evidence has mostly failed to show efficacy, with fourteen of sixteen identified randomized controlled trials comparing face masks to no mask controls failing to find statistically significant benefit …
Disclosing Privacy And Discrimination Protections In Informed Consent, Anya E.R. Prince
Disclosing Privacy And Discrimination Protections In Informed Consent, Anya E.R. Prince
Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine
Recent empirical work shows that providing greater detail about limitations of genetic anti-discrimination protections in informed consent documents is likely to lower individuals’ willingness to participate in research studies. This article presents these empirical findings and analyzes the implications of the findings for clinical care and for privacy and discrimination risks beyond genetic discrimination. While the paper argues that further research is needed to fully understand the potential implications of disclosure of legal protections in the clinical setting, there are clear implications in the research setting. Since individuals are likely to alter their decision to participate in research based on …

Managing The Medical Matrix: A "Dais" For Artificial Intelligence In Health Care (And Beyond), Layla G. Maurer
Journal of Law, Technology, & the Internet
AI offers “huge and wide-reaching potential” in health; the futures of health care and AI are deeply interconnected. Use of AI provides the field with never-before imagined opportunities to streamline and delve more deeply into medical care, including disease identification, diagnosing conditions, and a simpler way to crowdsource and develop treatment plans. Its broad inclusion in the field has created a pressing need for more, and better, regulation. Improved regulation is especially critical because of the possibility that mismanaged AI will allow for incorrect diagnosis of patients or biased predictions and outcomes. In fact, numerous examples of such bias – …
