Anne, a long-time patient of Dr. Jewell, had been receiving chemotherapy for an early stage cancer. The chemotherapy treatment reduced her immune system function, and she came down with pneumonia. Anne had completed advanced directives stating she did not want to be hooked up to machines, but at the time of her hospitalization for pneumonia, Dr. Jewell believed that she would have a full recovery. He did not believe she was near death. After Anne and Dr. Jewell discussed her options, Ann chose to be placed on a ventilator, just to get her through an acute (short-term) episode of pneumonia. Anne had stated in her advanced directive that she did not want to be hooked up to machines to keep her alive and Dr. Jewell believed that he had a duty to uphold Anne’s wishes. He also knew however, that this turn of events in her life was completely unexpected and that three of her children had traveled overseas for a family wedding. He was having difficulty reaching them, and it would be days before they would return. He decided that although it was against Anne’s wishes, he would keep her on the ventilator until all the children returned home to say their goodbyes. He felt this action would benefit her survivors. Which principle, theory or approach did Dr. Jewell use to support his decision? Consider the decision Dr. Jewell made, as described above. You identified one theory or approach Dr. Jewell used to support his decision: Your choices were; Defensive Medicine Approach, Post-Modernist Approach, Deontological Theory, or Teleological Theory.  Identify ONE ethical principle that supports Dr. Jewell’s decision and explain how it supports Dr. Jewell.  Then, identify ONE ethical principle that conflicts with Dr. Jewell’s decision and explain how it conflicts with what Dr. Jewell chose to do.
