Baily & Love 14: Ethics and Law in Surgical Practice
from Clinical Deep Dives · host Dr Manaan Kar Ray
Surgical decisions carry ethical and legal weight, often under conditions of uncertainty and urgency. This episode explores the principles that govern consent, capacity, confidentiality, negligence, and professional accountability.We examine real-world dilemmas: operating without consent in emergencies, balancing autonomy with beneficence, managing error, and navigating end-of-life decisions. Legal frameworks are discussed not as constraints, but as structures that protect patients and clinicians alike.This chapter invites reflection on the moral dimensions of surgery — reminding listeners that technical skill must always be guided by ethical clarity and respect for persons.
