Another Algorithm to Handle Requests for Non-beneficial Interventions



Last month, I described an algorithm published in the Journal of Medical Ethics that the authors argued should be used to appropriately handle medical futility disputes.  




This week, the same journal (Journal of Medical Ethics) has posted another article defending a different algorithm by a different group of German medical/ethical researchers:  "Evaluating a patient's request for life-prolonging treatment: an ethical framework."  The article is open access.
