Fertility Care: Essential Or Non-Essential? Lessons From The Covid-19 Pandemic, Rebecca S. Feinberg Jan 2022

Fertility Care: Essential Or Non-Essential? Lessons From The Covid-19 Pandemic, Rebecca S. Feinberg

Scholarly Works

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, in an effort to allocate medical resources towards the anticipated influx of patients infected with the novel virus, many non-essential healthcare services were temporarily paused. The American Society of Reproductive Medicine led the move to halt infertility care in all but the most extreme cases. This cessation of infertility care, compounded by the unknown duration of this recommendation, added to the already high level of stress and anxiety that fertility patients experience and in cases of advanced maternal age or diminished ovarian reserve potentially resulted in suboptimal clinical outcomes. There was vocal disagreement …

Assistance In Dying: A Comparative Look At Legal Definitions, Jocelyn Downie, Mona Gupta, Stefano Cavalli, Samuel Blouin

Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press

Euthanasia, assisted suicide, medical assistance in dying, death with dignity: these and many other different terms are used around the world to capture various types of assistance in dying. This diversity in terminology can create confusion both in academic debates and in policy-making if it is unclear what type of action or inaction is intended to be captured, by whom, and under what circumstances. By defining and contrasting several terms and legal status of assistance in dying in jurisdictions authorizing it, this comparative glossary aims to lay a foundation that prevents linguistic and conceptual confusion.


Permissive Regulation: A Critical Review Of The Regulatory History Of Buprenorphine Formulations In Canada, Abhimanyu Sud, Meghan Mcgee, Barbara Mintzes, Matthew Herder Jan 2022

Permissive Regulation: A Critical Review Of The Regulatory History Of Buprenorphine Formulations In Canada, Abhimanyu Sud, Meghan Mcgee, Barbara Mintzes, Matthew Herder

Suboxone (buprenorphine-naloxone) is an opioid product approved in the US and Canada for the treatment of opioid use disorder. The drug is considered an important response to the opioid overdose epidemic with consistent calls for wider prescribing and deregulation. The history of Suboxone regulation in Canada has not been critically examined. Part of the rationale for doing so stems from the US regulatory experience, with documented irregularities, or what some have called abuses, that support profit-making by Suboxone's manufacturers. This regulatory analysis allows us to determine how opportunities to address health crises through drug innovation are managed at a federal …


Reducing Barriers To Accessing Administrative Data On Sars-Cov-2 Vaccination For Research, Andrew Mcrae, Patrick Archambault, Patrick Fok, Hana Wiemer, Laurie Morrison, Matthew Herder Jan 2022

Reducing Barriers To Accessing Administrative Data On Sars-Cov-2 Vaccination For Research, Andrew Mcrae, Patrick Archambault, Patrick Fok, Hana Wiemer, Laurie Morrison, Matthew Herder

Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press

Public trust in scientific research, especially research regarding vaccines, has proven fragile during the COVID-19 pandemic. To counter abundant misinformation about SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, rigorous, ongoing evaluations of vaccine safety and effectiveness by independent Canadian researchers are important. However, researchers' efforts to conduct timely, national studies of vaccine effectiveness have been hindered by barriers to data sharing that have made it difficult to integrate patients' vaccination status into SARS-CoV-2 clinical and epidemiological studies. Here, McRae et al discuss how a risk-averse data-sharing culture has led to missed opportunities to conduct robust, timely, pan-Canadian SARS-CoV-2 clinical and vaccine effectiveness studies, and outline …


Abortion Rights Beyond The Medico-Legal Paradigm, Mariana Prandini Assis, Joanna Erdman Jan 2022

Abortion Rights Beyond The Medico-Legal Paradigm, Mariana Prandini Assis, Joanna Erdman

Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press

Abortion rights in international law have historically been framed within a medico-legal paradigm, the belief that regulated systems of legal and medical control guarantee safe abortion. However, a growing worldwide practice of self-managed abortion (SMA) supported by feminist activism challenges key precepts of this paradigm. SMA activism has shown that more than medical service delivery matters to safe abortion and has called into question the legal regulation of abortion beyond criminal prohibitions. This article explores how abortion rights have begun to depart from the medico-legal paradigm and to support the novel norms and practices of SMA activism in a transformation …
