The National Institutes of Health (NIH) aligns up with my Lab series because it talks about health which is something that is looked at when an ACE Study is done. The NIH (2016) evaluates many areas when looking if they want to fund a study or not. They look at technical criteria, cost, past performance of the people/person and the advantages/disadvantages of the study. My modification would be much unless I had a lot of change about my study in order to meet NHI regulation for proposal for a grant. Grants have a lot of requirement and regulation that need to be meant. If I had to make any modifications it would be so my information fits in the regulation more.…
Many people are simply reluctant to donate their bodily parts. In response to the shortage, proposals have come forth advocating the sale of non-vital human organs.” (Andre, Claire, and Manuel Velasquez. " Organ Selling and Transplants." Organ Selling and Transplants.)…
“Organs for Sale” is an argument written in response to the on-going ethical debate of a market-based incentive program to meet the rising demands of organ transplants. With many on the waiting list for new organs and few organs being offered, the author, Sally Satel, urges for legalization of payment to organ donors. Once in need of a new kidney herself, Sally writes of the anguish she encountered while facing three days a week on dialysis and the long wait on the UNOS list with no prospective willing donors in sight. She goes on to list several saddening researched facts on dialysis patients survival rates, length of time on the UNOS wait list, and registered as well as deceased donor numbers. While Sally is…
He states many convincing factors such as; when we give our organs we are able to give people another chance at life. One of his rebuttals to people who think organs should not be sold is that in a way we already sell them, he states that they are indirectly sold because the coast of organ transplant surgery is so expensive; the transplant centers as well as the doctors are the ones that are making the profit not the person giving the organ. He also argues that if it were to come to giving…
ECT is a valid form of treatment for severe mental illnesses. ECT is considered after all traditional methods had failed ( Arkowitz & Lilienfeld). To qualify for ECT treatment, patients must have a serious mental illness and can not have any physical illness (Davis). Electroshock therapy is not a fast way to get results. It takes multiple ECT sessions to see large improvements. But, ECT has lessened the effects of illnesses like BD and schizophrenia. The pluses adjust the sensitivity of the neurotransmitters in the brain and creates new paths in the brain ( Arkowitz & Lilienfeld).…
Another ethical issue is the fear that policies to maximize organ donations in an opt-out organ donation system, could go too far – leading to premature declarations of death in order…
Compensating donors for organ donations is one of the most controversial debates we have today. The shortage of organ donations in America is the one of the main reason there is a sudden drive to supplement the possible sources of organs. It first began with the move from donations of organs from cadaver to donations from living donors, and no the debate is rerisen, to the possibility of building a market for organ donations with a financial incentive.…
Consider the fact that the person in need of an organ might have a family to provide for. Organ donation is portrayed in a positive way in The House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer and in My Sister's Keeper…
Great discussion !! Meshele is not advocating not medicating a patient. She explained that the outcome, namely death, might be viewed by some as undesireable, but that we could not let the ultimate outcome (i.e. death), interfere with ethical decisions that we need to make, namely making the ethical decision to medicate a patient on comfort care in order to give them quality of life. Being aware of the risks does not mean that we will not follow through on an ethical decision. Meshele, states that not providing comfort care, including medication is unethical. We can all agree that nurses that do not want to medicate because they are afraid of causing death, need to reconsider their position. I had a patient that died hours after I increased…

3.Quotation from the essay w/Parenthetical Reference- Satel says, "If we really want to increase the supply of organs, we need to try incentives- financial and otherwise." (129. Par. 6) Here in this statement Satel uses logic to prove that if people are given something they would enjoy, In return they will become an organ donor. "Many transplant experts recognize this, proposing initiatives that would allow people to give their organs in exchange for tax breaks , guaranteed health insurance, college scholarships for their children, deposits in their retirement accounts, and so on... the Presidents Council on Bloethics and others, have begun discussing the virtues of such incentives." (129. Par.7) This evidence proves that the Auther is not the only person who thinks incentives should be given and if enough people think there should be initiatives, then it may happen.…
Money and lives can be saved if organ donations were more prominent. With all the treatments need to keep a sick patient alive, the amount of money piles up on the hospital, meaning more taxes for everybody. The families affected have to schedule for appointments constantly, leading to less work. Less work means less income coming in. The family will have other issues to worry about besides their family member dying helplessly. Randolph, an author all for mandatory organ donation, explains what organ donations would help through the view of patients needing kidneys. He…
The final argument against allowing for monetary compensation for organ donation is that many maintain desperate people do desperate things. This means that people may choose to donate even though it is against their better judgement, thus making the action less voluntary. However, medical experts say that there must be a level of consent and understanding for the danger that the donor will undergo during this process. Consent means that they must understand the risks, as well as, the reward and be willing to undergo the process. Any hesitation would undermine consent and would void the process (Wilkinson,…
Abstract Organ transplant saves many lives, but there are many ethical and moral issues involved in organ transplant. Some of the issues ethical issues involved in transplantation include who gets the organs, how many organs each patient gets, and how patients move up on the transplant list. There is a shortage of organs available for transplant in regard to the number of patients that need organ transplantation. Would compensation for the organs donated increase the number of people willing to donate? Compensation or incentives for donating organs is an ethical dilemma itself. Many of them will always exist.…
Granted that the sick individuals who are in need of organs also do not deserve to die, it is immoral to save them by arbitrarily killing someone else. Sacrificing this individual, who was chosen by chance, in order to provide vital organs to others, is not morally defensible simply because morality should exist outside the scope of human influence and exceptions to moral prohibitions, such as the prohibition on killing, should be few and far in…
