The hospital had just adopted a p...

520 | |a A few years ago a battered infant was admitted to a California hospital. After a period of observation and testing, the physicians concluded that the infant had been beaten so badly that his brain was almost completely destroyed, leaving him permanently unconscious.

According to this policy, after suitable subspecialty consultations and deliberations, including efforts to gain parental agreement and documentation of unanimous ethics committee support, the patient's physician had the authority to discontinue life-sustaining treatment. The infant's physician wished to do this. The mother, however, who was the prime battery suspect, insisted that the baby be kept alive. | ||
