Hastings Cent Rep. 2022 Mar;52(2):2. doi: 10.1002/hast.1346.
In the Hastings Center Report's March-April 2022 issue, Diana Anderson, an architect and physician, and her colleagues examine ways in which aspects of the physical design of health care facilities can function as health interventions. The authors identify the kinds of ethical questions such interventions raise, and they offer recommendations for protecting patients and promoting good and fair patient outcomes. A second article focuses on how clinicians who provide patients with implantable medical devices have become dependent on health support workers who are employed by the device manufacturers themselves. The authors argue that this reliance disrupts the epistemic practices on which clinical decision-making depends and can therefore be damaging to patient care. Accompanying the regular part of this issue is a special report on the antiracism work needed in bioethics.
在《黑斯廷斯中心报告》2022 年 3-4 月刊中，建筑师兼医生戴安娜·安德森（Diana Anderson）及其同事探讨了医疗设施的物理设计如何能起到健康干预的作用。作者指出了此类干预措施所引发的各种伦理问题，并提出了保护患者和促进良好、公平的患者结果的建议。第二篇文章侧重于向患者提供植入式医疗设备的临床医生如何变得依赖于设备制造商自己雇佣的医疗支持人员。作者认为，这种依赖破坏了临床决策所依赖的认识实践，因此可能对患者护理造成损害。本期的常规部分附有一份关于生物伦理学中所需的反种族主义工作的特别报告。
