1 OREGON HOSPICE ASSOCIATION DEMENTIA DILEMMA: The Good, The Bad & The Maybe Sue D. Porter, MBA, MSB Founding Executive Director
2 PEACEFUL DEATH DIGNITY CHOOSE OWN TERMS COMFORT NO PAIN CONTROL TIMING
3 END-OF-LIFE SPECTRUM ADVANCE DIRECTIVE POLST : PHYSICIAN S ORDER FOR LIFE SUSTAINING TREATMENT DNR : DO NOT RESUSCITATE AID IN DYING... or not?
4 WHO DECIDES AUTONOMY Ability To Make Own Decision? SELF DETERMINATION Personal Empowerment? PERSONAL BELIEFS Patient s Beliefs and Goals? BENEFITS vs. BURDENS Is there a burden?
5 DWD REQUIREMENTS TERMINAL ILLNESS... 6 MONTH PROGNOSIS AN AUTONOMOUS REQUEST... NO COERCION X X MENTAL AND PHYSICAL CAPACITY X
6 NON-QUALIFIERS FATAL DISEASE: MORE THAN 6 MONTH PROGNOSIS CHRONIC, DEGENERATIVE OR DEBILITATIVE DISEASE TRAUMA RELATED DISABILITIES DEMENTIA
7 DEMENTIA: COMPLICATED ISSUE MEDICAL PERSONAL LEGAL FAMILIAL BIOETHICAL SOCIETAL RELIGIOUS FINANCIAL
8 EUTHANASIA or PHYSICIAN-AID-IN-DYING EUTHANASIA: Physician makes you die (injection) Against the law in the U.S. PAD: Must self-administer the medication Must make autonomous decision - Dementia?
9 PRINCIPLES OF MEDICAL ETHICS BEAUCHAMP and CHILDRESS Autonomy - The right to make your own decision Beneficence - Act with best interest of person in mind Maleficence - Act without malice Justice - Fairness and equality among individuals
10 MENTAL CAPACITY SUFFICIENT UNDERSTANDING AND MEMORY TO COMPREHEND IN A GENERAL WAY THE SITUATION IN WHICH ONE FINDS ONESELF AND THE NATURE, PURPOSE, AND CONSEQUENCE OF ANY ACT OR TRANSACTION INTO WHICH ONE PROPOSES TO ENTER.
11 DEFINING DEMENTIA INABILITY TO: Recall long-term memories Understand ideas & concepts Respond to requests Use language correctly Read or write Recognize family or friends Remember time or location Distinguish between objects
12 HEALTH CARE PROXIES Allows control to someone else over health care decisions Gives direction to the medical community Reduces conflict between caregivers Assumes substituted judgment... best interest
13 HOW CREDIBLE? ASSUME RIGHT DECISION FOR FUTURE TREATMENT? Then person vs. the Now person Can we fully grasp a future situation? Could be happy now; change values & preferences
14 CRITICAL VS. EXPERIENTIAL INTERESTS CRITICAL INTEREST Precedent Autonomy Authority of the Health Care Proxy EXPERIENTIAL INTEREST Contemporary Competence? Considers the person s present state of being
15 CONTEMPORARY COMPETENCE? PRO CON Person is suffering irreversibly Person currently appears happy Trust in their Health Care Proxy Inability to communicate clearly Previous confidence in doctor Financial benefactor is long term care Inability to understand Source of request
16 ARGUMENTS AGAINST Timing of dementia and voluntary euthanasia Drugs can slow the changes of detrimental brain changes By the time diagnosed, could be too late to understand Burdens vs. compromise... bargaining down Margo
17 DUTCH CRITERIA - DUE CARE UNBEARABLE AND IRREVERSIBLE CONDITION Request is voluntary and well considered Unbearable suffering, without prospect of improvement Patient knows the situation and prospects No reasonable alternatives to relieve suffering Two physicians must agree Method used must be done with due medical care and attention
18 ADVANCE EUTHANASIA DIRECTIVE AED FOR DEMENTIA PRINCIPLES OF DUE CARE MUST BE ADHERED TO IS THAT POSSIBLE? INTERPRETATION OF WISHES POTENTIAL TO ADAPT
19 HOW TO ASSESS? Autonomy... ability to communicate? Should this be a function of psychiatrists? How to assess someone who can t communicate? Vulnerable population Whose request is this? Conflict of interest?
20 ADVANCE EUTHANASIA DIRECTIVE PRO Reiterate in early dementia Avoid prolonged suffering Honor critical interests Substitutive judgment Fear of losing self Loss of dignity and control Burden to others Financial considerations CON Prospective adaptation Voluntary and well-considered Unbearable and irreversible suffering Informed about situation and prospects Alternatives to relieve suffering Patient can t deliberate or choose Previous document decides Who is deciding?
21 PHYSICIANS EXPERIENCES Current physician doesn t know the patient Physicians can t communicate with patient meaningfully Questions of who is wanting this... conflict of interest Set limits on life-sustaining treatments Few have done it, unless there are comorbidities
