Nurses who care for patients undergoing liver transplantation increasingly face a variety of ethical issues. These issues include but are not limited to consent, selection of recipients, and allocation of scarce resources. Nurses have ethical concerns related to these issues that are specific to nursing. These nursing concerns differ in perspective, context, and content from the concerns of fellow health professionals or the lay public. For the nurse, the concern regarding consent may be not whether the consent was informed, but rather whether the consent was freely given. The scarce resource about which the nurse is most concerned is not so much the organ as it is professional nursing care. For the nurse to address these ethical concerns, strategies will have to be implemented at the unit, institutional, and professional level.
照顾肝移植患者的护士越来越多地面临各种伦理问题。这些问题包括但不限于同意、受者选择以及稀缺资源的分配。护士对这些问题存在与护理相关的伦理担忧。这些护理方面的担忧在视角、背景和内容上与其他医疗专业人员或普通公众的担忧有所不同。对护士来说，关于同意的担忧可能不在于同意是否是知情的，而在于同意是否是自愿给予的。护士最关心的稀缺资源与其说是器官，不如说是专业护理服务。为了让护士解决这些伦理担忧，必须在科室、机构和专业层面实施相应策略。
