13th National Paediatric Bioethics Conference 2022: Friends of the CBC hypothetical
Update: 2023-08-31
Description
A hypothetical case discussion sponsored by the Friends of the Children's Bioethics Centre Auxiliary. "Nadia" is a 15-year-old girl with cystic fibrosis who needs a permanent intravenous infusion device to facilitate her treatment. Her parents, of Indian heritage, are unwilling to agree to this. They are planning a family gathering and arranged marriage for Nadia and the infusion device will interfere with their plans. A panel of experts from the CBC, Profs Lynn Gillam, Clare Delany and Dr Georgina Hall, supported by a virtual panel from the RCH Clinical Ethics Response Group, wrestle with the case, which is full of ethical ‘heat’ and cultural sensitivities.
