Ethical Analysis

Ethical Analysis

In Orthodoxy, it is believed that injury to the body of the deceased leads to a loss of respect for living people. But in Christianity has always welcomed a sacrifice for the sake of health and happiness of another person. This teaches us life's path and he Savior. But the sacrifice must be based only on own human will, in any case are not allowed in this issue of violence or suggestion. Also unacceptable is the trade in donor organs. Therefore, almost all countries there is a ban on the sale of organs and transplants should be carried out strictly on the evidence and the results of the compatibility of donor and recipient tissue (Morris, 1994).

In Western countries like ours, the donation of organs for transplantation is in a context with high standards of social and distributive justice: Health care is generally universal. The situation of sickness, unemployment or disability is compensated financially. The facilities for treatment before transplantation, especially in dialysis patients with ESRD are practically limitless. Finally the possibilities of obtaining organs from deceased donors are high. Thus, ethical principles accepted in developed countries cannot be extrapolated to other geographic areas with large basic needs. In transplantation, the focus of these ethical principles should be balanced and you cannot attend one at the expense of others. Arise many aspects related to the areas of knowledge and practice where it is necessary decisions to help solve, in a very short time limit for medical situations and coordinators involved in transplant procedures not violated the basic ethical principles. In general, transplant dilemmas are related to the donor organ and the recipient thereof (Irwin, 2012).

Extremely rapid changes associated with the possibility of introducing new techniques in medicine often lead to situations in which ethics are not kept pace with technology. The reception of the world for a statistical significant representative of the medical community often reflect on the ethical dimension of research is a phenomenon secondary to the pragmatics of action previously adopted, which is increasingly taking a particular type of research ignoring the ethical issues, in a similar way as in physics leads to search for new particles. The consequence of this is sometimes interpretive helplessness, where you cannot see the positive in terms of moral out of a situation that allowed consistently been avoiding questions about the moral tone of the research and techniques. This situation such as we experienced in autumn 1996. Any suggestion of a solution, which attempted to respect the ethical principles widely, understood humanism appeared as evil. Helplessness was a practical falsification of interpretation of this methodology, which implicitly recognizes the principle: There is a problem; you need to find the technical capabilities of the solution, not asking for the moral price of the available solutions (Morris, 1994).

Discussion

Sampling of organs for transplantation is carried out on patients with brain death occurred, but it remains an artificially supported by the work of the heart and lungs. So it must be clearly stated definition of "the ...
