Gaps: In compliance with the Updated Accreditation Criteria of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Education Committee of AAPL has identified “professional practice gaps.” Definition: A “professional practice gap” is the difference between what a health professional is doing or accomplishing compared to what is achievable on the basis of current professional knowledge. For this Annual Meeting the following gaps have been identified based on the AAPL Educational Mission Statement printed on the next page: 1. Not practicing forensic psychiatry at the highest level attainable based on current knowledge of the fundamentals of the field. Need: Improvement in knowledge of civil, criminal, and correctional forensic psychiatry. 2. Lacking the knowledge of content or technique to teach psychiatrists the fundamentals of forensic psychiatry in the most effective ways. Need: Knowing new content and effective ways to teach forensic psychiatry. 3. Lacking the ability to conduct or assess research in forensic psychiatry. Needs: 1. Knowing how to do research or 2. Knowing the outcomes of research in forensic psychiatry and how to apply those outcomes to forensic practice. II. Changes in behavior/objectives: It is intended that, as a result of attending this meeting, psychiatrists will be able to identify changes in competence or performance that are desirable. Definitions: Competence” is knowing how to do something. “Performance” is what a psychiatrist would do in practice if given the opportunity. Participants will improve their competence or performance in forensic psychiatry in the following three areas: 1. Service, including treatment of forensic patients, development of service delivery strategies, and enhancement of consultative abilities at the interface of psychiatry and the legal profession; 2. Teaching, including new methods of training of forensic psychiatrists and classification of the tasks and functions of forensic psychiatrists; and 3. Research, gaining access to scientific data in area that form the basis for practice of discipline. III. Evaluation: The Updated Accreditation criteria are designed to integrate with the new requirements for maintenance of certification. (For more information see www.ABPN.org.) Physicians are expected to perform self assessments of their practice, but AAPL, as an organization accredited by the ACCME, is expected to measure how its educational activities assist physicians in this activity. Questions on the evaluation form address your intended changes in competence or performance. In a few months, we will contact all physician meeting attendees to ask you if you actually HAVE experienced changes in competence or performance. Your responses, now and in the future, will assist us and ultimately you in determining educational activities that are most useful to you. Thank you in advance. Liza H. Gold, MD and Annette L.

A blanket prohibition, after all, if strictly applied, would impose criminal punishment on physicians and relatives whose complicity in bringing about the death of a patient, or loved one was justified by the dying person's desperate condition and lucid wish to die.

  • Attitude of Doctors Toward Euthanasia in Delhi, India
    Published online: 2019-04-05 Original Article AAttitudettitude ooff ddoctorsoctors ttowardoward eeuthanasiauthanasia iinn DDelhi,elhi, IIndiandia ABSTRACT Introduction: Deliberation over euthanasia has been enduring for an extended period of time. On one end, there are populaces talking for the sacrosanctity of life and on the other end, there are those, who promote individual independence. All over the world professionals from different areas have already spent mammoth period over the subject. A large number of cases around the world have explored the boundaries of current legal distinctions, drawn between legitimate and nonlegitimate instances of ending the life. The term euthanasia was derived from the Greek words “eu” and “thanatos” which means “good death” or “easy death.” It is also known as mercy killing. Euthanasia literally means putting a person to painless death especially in case of incurable suffering or when life becomes purposeless as a result of mental or physical handicap. Objective: To study the attitude of doctors toward euthanasia in Delhi. Methodology: It was a questionnaire based descriptive cross-sectional study carried out between July 2014 and December 2014. The study population included Doctors from 28 hospitals in Delhi both public and private. Equal numbers of doctors from four specialties were included in this study (50 oncologists, 50 hematologists, 50 psychiatrists, and 50 intensivists). Demographic questionnaire, as well as the Euthanasia Attitude Scale (EAS), a 30 items Likert-scale questionnaire developed by (Holloway, Hayslip and Murdock, 1995) was used to measure attitude toward Euthanasia. The scale uses both positively (16 items) and negatively (14 items) worded statements to control the effect of acquiescence.

  • Thesis Final
    In Pursuit of a Good Death: Responding to Changing Sensibilities in the Context of the Right to Die Debate A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Juridical Studies at the University of Sydney VICTORIA HILEY The Faculty of Law University of Sydney January 2008 ABSTRACT This thesis challenges a number of claims that are made in the context of the euthanasia debate: that there is only one version of the good death; that rights discourse is the most appropriate vehicle by which to secure legal recognition of a right to die; that the Netherlands is either a model for reform or the epitome of a slippery slope in its regulation of euthanasia; and that a key argument in the euthanasia debate, the sanctity of life doctrine, is a fixed, immutable concept. In this thesis I use process sociology, developed by Norbert Elias, in order to capture changing sensibilities toward death and dying in the common law jurisdictions (Australia, England, the United States of America, Canada and New Zealand) and in the Netherlands. At the same time I analyse changing attitudes among key groups whose work impacts upon the euthanasia debate namely, parliamentarians, law reform bodies, the judiciary and medical associations. My aim in adopting this approach is threefold. First of all, to examine evolving attitudes to death and dying in order to determine whether the institutions of law and medicine are responding in an adequate manner to changing sensibilities in the common law countries and in the Netherlands. Secondly, to highlight shifting balances of power within the euthanasia debate.

  • On the Relationship Between Suicide-Prevention and Suicide-Advocacy Groups
    Letter to the Editor On the Relationship Between Suicide-Prevention and Suicide-Advocacy Groups Margaret Pabst Battin Uniuersity of Utah Largely in response to contemporary medicine's advancing technological capacities to extend the process of dying to extraordinary lengths. recent years have seen the emergence of numerous advocacy groups concerned with what is often called "death with dignity." For instance. the New York-based group. Concern for Dying, distributes the Living Will as a means for individuals to secure their right to refuse unwanted, life-prolonging medical treatment. Another New York group, the Society for the Right to Die, lobbies for passage of "natural death" legislation, and has seen passage of Natural Death Acts in California and ten other U.S. states, and legislative consideration of similar bills in another twenty-seven. The Los Angeles-area group, Hemlock, led by a British writer who helped his cancer-striken wife drink a lethal potion, argues for societal recognition of assisted suicide as an option in terminal illness. Britain's Voluntary Euthanasia Society, once renamed EXIT: The Society for the Right to Die with Dignity, has published and distributed to its members a booklet of suicide methods for use by terminally ill persons; a similar book has become commercially available in France. Nor are such groups a local phenomenon; they are emerging world-wide. Although their views range from quite conservative insistence on passive refusal of treatment to radical suicide-advocacy, there are new voluntary euthanasia societies in Australia, Norway, Sweden, Japan, Denmark, New Zealand, South Africa, Holland, Germany, France, Colombia, Zimbabwe, Canada, India, and Switzerland.

ASSISTED SUICIDE, THE DUE PROCESS CLAUSE AND "FIDELITY IN TRANSLATION" WILLARD C. SHIH INTRODUCTION [T]he prospect of impossibility should not dissuade any scientist or doctor who is sincerely dedicated to the pursuit of empirical truth. A prerequisite for that noble aim is the ideal of unfettered experi- mentation on human death under impeccably ethical conditions. [Physician-assisted suicide], as I have outlined it, comes closest to that ideal, now and for the foreseeable future. The practice should be legitimized and implemented as soon as possible; but that calls for the strident advocacy of influential personalities who, unfortu- nately, choose to remain silent or disinterested-or simply antithetical.' Dr. Kevorkian authored this passage hoping that other physicians would read it and join his crusade supporting physician-assisted sui- cide. The mere mention of his name stirs up different images in peo- ple's minds.

Individual chronic disease guidelines often recommend pharmacological therapies as a key intervention, resulting in patients being prescribed multiple regular medications for their different diseases. Although the term ‘‘polypharmacy’’ has been applied to the use of multiple medications, there is no consistent definition, and this term is now being used all inclusively. To improve both scientific rigor and optimal patient care, it is crucial that a stan- dard terminology is used, which reclassifies the term ‘‘polypharmacy’’ into distinct phenotypes relating to the index chronic disease, addi- tional conditions to the index (comorbidity), or the experience of multiple chronic
