Evidentiary Privilege For Hospital Quality Assurance And Risk Management: Assessing Statutory Reform, David G. Duff Jan 1989

Evidentiary Privilege For Hospital Quality Assurance And Risk Management: Assessing Statutory Reform, David G. Duff

All Faculty Publications

Quality assurance (QA) and risk management (RM) programs originated relatively recently in Canadian hospitals. Associated with the increasingly institutional framework for the delivery of health care, their development has been stimulated by tougher standards for hospital accreditation., the expanded scope of hospital liability for medical malpractice, and direct government regulation. While these measures promise substantial advancement in patient safety and the quality of medical care, considerable concern has been voiced that their potential is frustrated by the unwillingness of medical personnel to participate wholeheartedly in such programs without clear guarantees of confidentiality for the deliberations and recommendations of QA and …

Public-Private Partnerships In Biomedical Research: Resolving Conflicts Of Interest Arising Under The Federal Technology Transfer Act Of 1986, Thomas N. Bulleit Jr. Jan 1989

Public-Private Partnerships In Biomedical Research: Resolving Conflicts Of Interest Arising Under The Federal Technology Transfer Act Of 1986, Thomas N. Bulleit Jr.

Journal of Law and Health

The Federal Technology Transfer Act of 1986 offers private industry the opportunity to enter into cooperative research and development agreements with scientists in federal laboratories and to gain rights in intellectual property resulting from such collaborations. Increased collaborations with private industry, however, expands the potential for conflicts of interest. Resolution of the tensions between the Technology Transfer Act and federal conflict of interest rules is important because federal laboratories, such as the NIH, are experiencing a loss of senior scientists to universities and private industry due to inadequate compensation. These tensions may be resolved by some combination of policies, regulations, …


The Politics Of Transplantation Of Human Fetal Tissue, George J. Annas Jan 1989

The Politics Of Transplantation Of Human Fetal Tissue, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

Research involving human fetal tissue has been the subject of intense political debate in this country for almost two decades, and the use of fetal tissues in transplantation continues this controversy in another forum. Since Roe v. Wade ,1 the landmark decision on abortion by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973, the federal government has focused public attention on fetal research by creating panels of experts. "3 This conclusion was accepted on a vote of 15 to 2, and included recommendations that the decision to abort be kept independent of the decision to retrieve and use fetal tissue, that recipients …


Webster V. Reproductive Health Services: Do Legislative Declarations That Life Begins At Conception Violate The Establishment Clause?, Dr. Robert L. Maddox, Blaine Bortnick Jan 1989

Webster V. Reproductive Health Services: Do Legislative Declarations That Life Begins At Conception Violate The Establishment Clause?, Dr. Robert L. Maddox, Blaine Bortnick

Campbell Law Review

This article contends that the Missouri legislative statement is a theologically derived finding that personhood begins at the moment of conception. Such an inherently theological and controversial determination violates a core purpose of the establishment clause of the first amendment, the absolute prohibition against government preference of one religious sect or denomination over another and the placing of the state's imprimatur on a particular religious dogma. What follows is a synopsis of the religious debate over whether human life begins at conception. Next is a discussion of the statute in light of this debate in the context of establishment clause …

Feeding The Permanently Unconscious And Terminally Ill Or Dying Is Not Always Compassion, Phebe Saunders Haugen Jan 1989

Feeding The Permanently Unconscious And Terminally Ill Or Dying Is Not Always Compassion, Phebe Saunders Haugen

Faculty Scholarship

A surrogate decision maker may conclude that efforts to mechanically provide liquid nourishment would cause considerable suffering in return for little gain. But such a decision is unquestionably one that can produce great conflict for families and for medical caregivers. Assessment must be made of each patient's situation and of the benefits and burdens that will result if tube feeding is withheld or withdrawn. It may well be, however, that in some cases, the most humane and compassionate treatment for a patient is the withdrawal of all technological interventions, including those that supply nourishment.

The State's Interest In The Preservation Of Life: From Quinlan To Cruzan, Philip G. Peters Jr. Jan 1989

The State's Interest In The Preservation Of Life: From Quinlan To Cruzan, Philip G. Peters Jr.

Faculty Publications

This article considers the kinds of limits on withholding that each of these policies might plausibly support, compares these limits to the judicial approaches taken in the refusal of treatment cases, and explores how apparent conflicts between these state goals and the interests of the patients might be resolved. Because this article focuses exclusively on the state's interests, however, it necessarily isolates and considers only one portion of a complex problem involving the interests of patients, families, providers, and others. No comprehensive examination of the nature and weight of the patient's interests or those of other involved parties is attempted. …

In Re Grant: Where Does Washington Stand On Artificial Nutrition And Hydration?, Stephen P. Vanderhoef Jan 1989

In Re Grant: Where Does Washington Stand On Artificial Nutrition And Hydration?, Stephen P. Vanderhoef

Seattle University Law Review

The Washington Supreme Court in In re Grantsought to determine whether life sustaining treatment could be legally withheld from a terminally ill, non-comatose, incompetent individual. In its December 1987 slip opinion, a majority of the court expanded on its previous decisions empowering third parties, including guardians, families, and physicians, to withhold and withdraw life sustaining treatment from incompetent individuals. This was accomplished by characterizing artificial nutrition and hydration as removable, life sustaining medical treatment. The court also gave third parties the power to remove artificial nutrition and hydration before the incompetent individual in question slips into a coma or …

Texas Oil And Gas Leases Contain Separate And Distinct Implied Covenant To Further Explore After Lucrative Production., E. Joy Jackson Sparks Jan 1989

Texas Oil And Gas Leases Contain Separate And Distinct Implied Covenant To Further Explore After Lucrative Production., E. Joy Jackson Sparks

St. Mary's Law Journal

In Sun Exploration & Production Co. v. Jackson, the Texas Supreme Court held Texas oil and gas leases contain a separate and distinct implied covenant to further explore after lucrative production. A lease that grants an interest in oil and gas found beneath the ground surface holds several implied covenants. Once successful production begins on a leasehold, implied covenants arise to encourage cooperation between the lessor and the lessee. A covenant is a “promise” between two or more parties to perform or not to perform a specific act. A covenant may be expressly stated within a contract or implied by …
