Decisions Before Birth – Preterm Planning
This session presents a series of cases all with clinical caveats but also which exemplify the complex relationship between timing and ethics. Clinical emergencies often require split second decisions to be made with incomplete data. So too, there are moments during the longitudinal trajectory of a patient’s care when important ethical decisions must be made. The relationship between a moment in time, the duration of that moment and the point that moment occurs in the trajectory of care is complex.
