The Professonal Responsibility Model Of Obstetrical Ethics: Avoiding The Perils Of Clashing Rights, Robert L. Brent, Frank A. Chervenak, Md, Laurence B. Mccullough, Phd

The Selected Works of Robert Brent

Obstetric ethics is sometimes represented by polarized views. One extreme asserts the rights of the fetus as the overwhelming ethical consideration. Both assertions are overly simplistic. Such oversimplification is called reductionism. This article explains the fallacy of rights-based reductionism and 2 models of obstetric ethics based on it and explains why the fetal rights reductionism model and the pregnant woman's rights reductionism model result in conceptual and clinical failure and therefore should be abandoned.

Counseling Patients Exposed To Ionizing Radiation During Pregnancy, Robert L. Brent

The Selected Works of Robert Brent

Health physicists and knowledgeable clinicians have the responsibility to counsel women of reproductive age about the reproductive risks of ionizing radiation exposure before conception or during pregnancy. It is important to realize that lay individuals have many misconceptions about the reproductive risks of ionizing radiation. Many patients who have already had or will undergo some type of radiological test are apprehensive about the reproductive and developmental risks of diagnostic radiological procedures.

With the exception of cancer, there are …
