Mercury Med EDIT ND09.indd 1 9/4/09 10:42:32 AM neonatal November/OVcotol.b 2e2r N2o00. 79 Editorial INTENSIVE CARE Perspective A recent article posted on e-medicine by Brian Carter of Vanderbilt University reminds neonatal healthcare practitioners not to lose sight of their goals. Dr Carter raises the following questions: Who deserves access to neonatal specialty care? Who pays for it? Are the costs acceptable? Is the distribution of care equitable? Are some babies too small or sick for care? What outcomes are too burdensome? Who decides about who gets care? How are these decisions made? But Carter points out that many of these questions are often vaguely posed, if at all, and typically in reverse order. He says neonatal caregivers may also wonder, Why are we doing this? Did we make a Vol. 22 No. 7 difference? What were we trying to accomplish with our efforts? Failing to approach and try to answer these questions, he says, leads to moral uncertainty and distress. November-December 2009 Another way to put the picture in perspective, he notes, is to posit the following questions before proceeding: what are the goals of neonatal intensive care? What place do guidelines have in ethical practice, and how should they be developed? What’s good for the infant, and who says so? Neonatal caregivers, he says, can’t simply say their job is to “save all babies,” or “reduce infant mortality.” The physical constraints of the Table of Contents NICU need to be considered, he says, and the ends to which care is provided should be kept in mind: Goals need to include more than the simple application of critical care technology, such as ventilators, monitors, medications, invasive devices, and a multiplicity of laboratory measurements, to sick and premature newborn patients. They should include stabilization of the newborn and, ultimately, facilitation of the DEPARTMENTS transition to normal, extrauterine, neonatal physiology. This transition takes longer 4 for some infants and may require significant intervention and support. The reversal of Editorial: Perspective acute disease processes, such as infection and respiratory distress, is one recognized 15 News end to aim for. Care should be provided, he says, with a reasonable expectation of steady improvement, and shouldn’t cause needless pain. When apportioning care, 20 Monitoring the “capacity for the newborn to enjoy and participate in the human experience over a life prolonged beyond infancy” must be considered. Carter also reminds us 21 Products that “parents are considered to be the spokespersons [for infants], and thus their input must be considered, and that decisions should be shared and communicated among all parties.” Finally, he says, data about outcomes can’t rely solely on national, generalized information, because it may not apply to the local situation. Carter ARTICLES notes, “Perhaps the final consideration in answering these questions is that each day, 13 healthcare professionals must work within the realities of the cases before them. Commentary: WIC vs Breastfeeding Each patient has a unique set of problems that prompt action, moral reflection, 22 and reevaluation. Each healthcare dilemma reminds caregivers of their limitations, Human Milk in the NICU including uncertainty, the human predicament, lack of knowledge, and decision- 27 Umbilical Blood Sampling making abilities. All of these are tempered by the moral constraints under which they act. Healthcare professionals must, at times, accept the reality that tragic cases have 29 Anesthesia for C-Sections tragic outcomes… [The practitioner is] asked to not only inquire, ‘What good are we doing here?’ but also to move toward defining goals for the individual patient.” 33 Bone Disease and Nutrition 39 Stillbirth Intervention 44 Vaginal vs Cesarean 47 Les Plesko, Editor Maternal Health 56 Prioritizing Research From E-medicine, Ethical Issues in Neonatal Care, Brian S.
