Questiоn: Accоrding tо Utilitаriаnism, is it morаlly acceptable to use Dave's cells (see below) for research without his consent? Your answer should explain and demonstrate how the Principle of Utility functions and leads to your answer. The Case of Cancer Research & Patient Consent Dave is a patient in a world-renowned hospital who is being treated for a rare cancer. He consented to the treatment plan. During the course of treatment, his doctors take a sample of Dave's cells for research without informing Dave. He was not informed beforehand that they would do this and consequently did not consent to it. The use of Dave's cells enabled the medical researchers to develop breakthroughs in treating his rare cancer. These new treatments saved the lives of others who had the same cancer. The researchers involved in Dave's treatment were the only ones who knew that Dave did not consent to having his cells taken and included in research.
Questiоn: Accоrding tо Ross's Primа Fаcie Duties, wаs it morally justified for Nurse Worthen (see below) to refuse to care for this patient? Be sure that you fully identify and explain both what Prima Facie Duties are and the specific ones that you discuss, as well as how they apply to the resolution of this case. The Case of Nurse Worthen Nurse Worthen was a registered nurse, who objected to performing kidney dialysis upon a terminally ill patient who was a double amputee. She notified her head nurse that she "had moral, medical, and philosophical objections" against doing so. Prior to her protest, Ms. Worthen had performed the procedure on the patient and twice had to interrupt it because the patient suffered cardiac arrest and severe hemorrhaging. As a result she was convinced that the procedure was more harmful than beneficial to the patient and asked to be reassigned. The head nurse granted her request. Howeveer, several months later, she again was called upon to dialyze the patient. She thought that it had been agreed upon that she would not be given this assignment, and objected. The head nurse referred Ms. Worthen to the treating physician who informed her that the patient's family wanted the patient kept alive, and that the patient would soon cease to live without dialysis. Nonetheless, Ms. Worthen said she refused to dialyze the patient anymore. The head nurse then warned her that she would be fired if she continued in her refusal. Ms. Worthen continued to refuse to dialyze the patient, and she was terminated.
