densk [106]

Answer:

D. Genetic discrimination

Explanation:

Genetic discrimination is treating some family member or friend or employee differently because he or she had some genetic mutation which increases the risk of getting an inherited disorder. This is the least likely conflict faced by the healthcare providers with information about family members.

However, they may have the conflict that they should or should not tell other family members about the genetic risk because of patient's right to privacy. Beneficence is doing the right thing i.e. telling the patient that they must disclose this genetic disease to their sexual partners. Autonomy is respecting the patient's right to decide if they want disclosure or wanted to go into some treatment procedure.

1) Implied consent

2) There is no effect of the consent on the physician/organisation because the patient was unconscious.

Explanation:

1) The type of consent that can be applied to this scenario is called implied consent.

2) In such an emergency situation the consent of an unconscious patient or a patient that is unable to communicate presumed to give his/her consent if they were able to. Since the patient came into the ER it would be assumed that she came to the hospital for treatment and would have given her consent if she was conscious. I don’t think that any consequences for such an action. The Doctor only carried out the procedure due to the fact that it was a life or death situation for both the mother and the baby.
