****Please complete this ANA debate. My view point is to save the baby and also use the ANA Code of ethics provisions. ***
ANA Debate
Purpose of the Project: How does the ANA Code of Ethics support the individual's viewpoint
in the resolution of a selected ethical dilemma?
Opening Statement (2-3 minutes)
Describe the selected ethical dilemma.
Decide on a resolution/nurse's response to the dilemma. (Sometimes referred to as the
Pro vs. Con point of view.)
Describe how the nurse can utilize the ANA Code of Ethics to support this resolution?
Rebuttal Statements (2-3 minutes)
Discuss why your resolution to the scenario is optimal?
The focus of this discussion should be the application of the Code of Ethics in the
resolution of the scenario.
Remember that the topic is not the focus of the presentation but the process the
professional nurse utilizes for dealing with ethical dilemmas.(for example: abortion,
family planning, etc)
Scenario: A pregnant woman is diagnosed with an aggressive malignant tumor in her kidney
at 19 weeks' gestation. Should the nurse encourage her to terminate the pregnancy and
begin chemotherapy immediately or encourage her to use less effective chemotherapeutic
drugs and continue the pregnancy for as long as possible in order to save the baby. I stand
by encouraging the mom to use less effective chemotherapeutic drugs and continue the
pregnancy for as long as possible in order to save the baby.
