Episode 4 - A Family Divided
Episode description
Good morning listeners! Welcome to the fourth episode of the MedEthix Podcast. It's Yash, and I'm excited to continue our discussion of ethical dilemmas with you. This episode covers "A Family Divided," which covers an 45 year-old male suffering from a a stroke and previous cardiovascular complications. The dilemma is whether to place him on a tube-feeding system or not, and there is a disagreement between the family and many other considerations! Please follow along, and message us about any questions, dilemmas, or viewpoints you would like to share with us. Thanks for tuning in, and don't forget to stay ethical!
The case discussed in this episode is taken from the "A Family Divided." Please check out their website for the complete case study (this page is linked below), and any other ethical dilemmas you would like to explore.
