Le pictogramme, représentant une bombe, permet de souligner les éventuels pièges à éviter.

  • Ethics, Conflict and Medical Treatment for Children

    From disagreement to dissensus
    • 1st Edition
    • Dominic Wilkinson + 1 more
    • English
    What should happen when doctors and parents disagree about what would be best for a child? When should courts become involved? Should life support be stopped against parents’ wishes? The case of Charlie Gard, reached global attention in 2017. It led to widespread debate about the ethics of disagreements between doctors and parents, about the place of the law in such disputes, and about the variation in approach between different parts of the world. In this book, medical ethicists Dominic Wilkinson and Julian Savulescu critically examine the ethical questions at the heart of disputes about medical treatment for children. They use the Gard case as a springboard to a wider discussion about the rights of parents, the harms of treatment, and the vital issue of limited resources. They discuss other prominent UK and international cases of disagreement and conflict. From opposite sides of the debate Wilkinson and Savulescu provocatively outline the strongest arguments in favour of and against treatment. They analyse some of the distinctive and challenging features of treatment disputes in the 21st century and argue that disagreement about controversial ethical questions is both inevitable and desirable. They outline a series of lessons from the Gard case and propose a radical new ‘dissensus’ framework for future cases of disagreement. .

    Cet ouvrage, différent mais complémentaire de Manipulations viscérales 1 et 2, fait le point sur les nouvelles techniques de manipulations viscérales avancées de l’abdomen et de sa jonction avec le membre inférieur. L’accent est mis sur les techniques de stimulations neuroendocrines et leurs effets sur l’abdomen. Chaque zone anatomique (grand omentum, péritoine, aorte, diaphragme, estomac, duodénum, pancréas, rate, vésicule biliaire, foie, intestin grêle, côlon, reins, glandes surrénales et canal inguinal) est abordée de la même manière avec une présentation anatomique ; la vascularisation ; l’innervation ; l’embryologie simplifiée ; la physiologie ; les manipulations, avec des techniques détaillées et illustrées ; les relations ostéo-articulaires. Le fil conducteur, très novateur, de cet ouvrage est l’approche globale des dysfonctions de l’abdomen et l’action du praticien sur le système neuroendocrine. Avec plus d’une centaine de dessins anatomiques originaux et des photos de mise en situation des différents tests et techniques employées, ce livre didactique et extrêmement complet s’adresse à tous les ostéopathes et à tous les praticiens de la médecine manuelle souhaitant affermir leurs connaissances et développer de nouvelles approches diagnostiques et thérapeutiques. Jean-Pierre Barral est ostéopathe DO, diplômé de l’European School of Ostheopathy (Maidstone, Royaume-Uni) et de la faculté de médecine Paris- Nord, département ostéopathie et médecine manuelle. Il est également l’auteur de nombreux ouvrages d’ostéopathie traduits dans plusieurs pays.
