from Book Shelter · host Book Shelter

Examines the ethical challenges and issues surrounding innovation in medical technology and practice. The sources originate from discussions at a Lasker Forum and explore the difficult distinction between experimental research and routine medical care, especially when new techniques are introduced. Case studies in off-label drug use, innovative surgery, assisted reproduction, and neuroimaging are used to illustrate the ethical dilemmas. A central theme is the balance between promoting medical progress and ensuring patient safety through appropriate oversight, informed consent, and the professional duty to learn and educate others.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Innovation-Medical-Technology-Ethical-Challenges-ebook/dp/B07DFN1SQK?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=9eb7156a576d44ec5513a8d3ba4bb1d3&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by Podcai Studio:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
