Define ways to communicate and negotiate in order to resolve conflict directly -Differences in values and ethics -Joint decision-making [healthcare providers, patients and families] 1
4 Physicians and Futility Patients/families may be invested in interventions Physicians/other professionals may be invested in interventions Any party may perceive futility Definitions of Medical Futility Won t achieve the patient s goal Serves no legitimate goal of medical practice Ineffective more than 99% of the time Does not conform to accepted community standards Is this really a futility case? Unequivocal cases of medical futility are rare Miscommunication, value differences are more common Case resolution more important than definitions 2
5 Conflict over Treatment Unresolved conflicts lead to misery and most can be resolved Try to resolve differences Support the patient/family Base decisions on: Informed consent Advance care planning Goals of care Differential Diagnosis of Futility Situations Inappropriate surrogate Misunderstanding Personal factors Values/Ethics conflict Surrogate Selection Patient s stated preference Legislated hierarchy Who is most likely to know what the patient would have wanted? Who is able to reflect the patient s best interest? Does the surrogate have the cognitive ability to make decisions? 3
6 Misunderstanding: Diagnosis/Prognosis Underlying causes How to assess How to respond Misunderstanding: Underlying Causes Doesn t know the diagnosis Too much jargon Different or conflicting information Previous over-optimistic prognosis Stressful environment Sleep Deprivation Emotional distress/psychologically unprepared Inadequate cognitive ability Misunderstanding: How to Respond Choose a primary communicator Give information in Small pieces Multiple formats Use understandable language Frequent repetition may be required 4
7 Assess understanding frequently Do not hedge to provide hope Encourage writing down questions Provide support Involve other healthcare professionals Personal Factors Distrust Guilt Grief Interfamily issues Secondary pain Physician/nurse Type of Futility Conflicts Disagreement over: Goals Benefit 5
8 Difference in Values/Ethics Religious Miracles Value of life A Due Process Approach Earnest attempts in advance Joint decision-making Negotiation of disagreements Involvement of an institutional committee Transfer of care to another physician Consultation Palliative Physician as a neutral party to assist in decision of care Medical Futility Summary Questions 6
