For many of us, our biggest, life-and-death decisions - literally - will therefore be made by someone else. They will decide whether we live or die; between long life and quality of life; whether we receive heroic interventions in our final hours; and whether we die in a hospital or at home. They will determine whether our wishes are honored and choose between fidelity to our interests and what is best for themselves or others. Yet despite their critical role, we know remarkably little about how our loved ones decide for us. Speaking for the Dying tells their story, drawing on daily observations over more than two years in two intensive care units in a diverse urban hospital. From bedsides, hallways, and conference rooms, you will hear, in their own words, how physicians really talk to families and how they respond. You will see how decision makers are selected, the interventions they weigh in on, the information they seek and evaluate, the values and memories they draw on, the criteria they weigh, the outcomes they choose, the conflicts they become embroiled in, and the challenges they face. Observations also provide insight into why some decision makers authorize one aggressive intervention after the next while others do not-even on behalf of patients with similar problems and prospects. And they expose the limited role of advance directives in structuring the process decision makers follow or the outcomes that result. 650 0 $a Terminal care $x Decision making. 650 0 $a Terminal care $x Decision making $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Advance directives (Medical care) 650 0 $a Advance directives (Medical care) $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Terminally ill $x Civil rights. 650 0 $a Right to die $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Medical ethics. 650 0 $a Intensive care units. 650 12 $a Advance Directives. 650 12 $a Terminally Ill $x psychology. 650 22 $a Terminal Care $x ethics. 650 22 $a Right to Die $x ethics. 650 22 $a Decision Making. 650 22 $a Ethics, Medical. 650 22 $a Intensive Care Units. 650 7 $a Advance directives (Medical care) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00797413 650 7 $a Intensive care units. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00975936 650 7 $a Medical ethics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01014081 650 7 $a Right to die $x Moral and ethical aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01097900 650 7 $a Terminal care $x Decision making. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01147838 655 2 $a Case Reports. $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D002363 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423765 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Chicago series in law and society. 941 $a 5 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20240724074334.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240320010653.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20230303010140.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20200829014954.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20200319010250.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E8253CB469A611EAAA416F0A97128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
