From the supplier: Persistent vegetative state provokes powerful emotional responses in caregivers and family members. Patients in this state may have periods of wakefulness but are unaware of their environment, so neurological nurses often must consult with family to make difficult decisions about life sustaining treatments. Nurses should also make clear the importance of informing family about advance care directives.

3-0 out of 5 stars A word from a family member...
I found this on Amazon quite by accident, doing the family name search thing; Joseph and Ruth Ragona were my parents (I'm the youngest of their four children).While the article is informative it also doesn't begin to cover the magnitude of pain, frustration and grief my family went through; the irony of it all is just days after the court issued the order to allow my mother's feeding tube to be removed, she died of an infection resulting from bed sores--Christmas Day, no less, a week from when the tube was to be removed.

Why am I posting this review?Just to add a bit of perspective to the article from someone who lived through it. ... Read more

Product Description
This Special Issue of the journal Neuropsychological Rehabilitation aims to focus attention on key issues, to heighten awareness and stimulate interest in research on treatment of coma and persistent vegetative state. The first two papers are written by Professor Brian Jennett and Dr. Keith Andrews who present opinion on ethical issues and treatment in patients in persistent vegetative state. These papers are followed by a review of scales for measuring behavior in coma by the Southampton group together with the results of a pilot study on a new scale. There follows a paper on the clinical assessment of coma by Dr. E.A. Freeman and then a review of previously published studies on sensory stimulation as a treatment of coma by the editors. Finally, there are four research papers. These are on learning during coma by Dr. Barbara Wilson and the Southampton group; sensory regulation and recovery in coma by Dr. Rodger Wood and the Los Angeles group; evaluation of sensory stimulation using single case methodology in prolonged coma patients by workers at the Royal Home and Hospital, Putney; and on the effect of intense multi?sensory stimulation on coma arousal and recovery by the Philadelphia group. ...

Product Description
The strange and harrowing sight of a person being awake but unaware with no evidence of a working mind - the characteristics of the vegetative state - provokes intense debate and raises profound questions for health professionals, ethicists, philosophers and lawyers. This unique account by an unrivalled expert in the field, who himself collaborated in coining the term 'persistent vegetative state', surveys the medical, ethical and legal issues that surround this controversial topic. The medical definition and criteria for diagnosis are discussed, as are its frequency and causes, and possible outcomes. Ethical arguments discussed include the conflict between sanctity of life and respect for the autonomy and best interests of the victim, and between killing and letting die. Legal issues are explored with details of landmark court cases from the USA, Britain and elsewhere. This well-informed and carefully constructed account will be a benchmark for medical specialists, ethicists, lawyers and philosophers. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
During the past few decades, high-profile cases like that of Terry Schiavo have fueled the public debate over forgoing or withdrawing artificial nutrition and hydration from patients in a persistent vegetative state (PVS). These cases, whether involving adults or young children, have forced many to begin thinking in a measured and careful way about the moral legitimacy of allowing patients to die. Can families forgo or withdraw artificial hydration and nutrition from their loved ones when no hope of recovery seems possible? Many Catholics know that Catholic moral theology has formulated a well-developed and well-reasoned position on this and other end-of-life issues, one that distinguishes between "ordinary" and "extraordinary" treatment. But recent events have caused uncertainty and confusion and even acrimony among the faithful. In his 2004 allocution, Pope John Paul II proposed that artificial nutrition and hydration is a form of basic care, thus suggesting that the provision of such care to patients neurologically incapable of feeding themselves should be considered a moral obligation.The pope's address, which seemed to have offered a new development to decades of Catholic health care ethics, sparked a contentious debate among the faithful over how best to treat permanently unconscious patients within the tenets of Catholic morality. In this comprehensive and balanced volume, Ronald Hamel and James Walter present twenty-one essays and articles, contributed by physicians, clergy, theologians, and ethicists, to reflect the spectrum of perspectives on the issues that define the Catholic debate. Organized into six parts, each with its own introduction, the essays offer clinical information on PVS and feeding tubes; discussions on the Catholic moral tradition and how it might be changing; ecclesiastical and pastoral statements on forgoing or withdrawing nutrition and hydration; theological and ethical analyses on the issue; commentary on Pope John Paul II's 2004 allocution; and the theological commentary, court decisions, and public policy resulting from the Clarence Herbert and Claire Conroy legal cases.A valuable resource for students and scholars, this teachable volume invites theological dialogue and ethical discussion on one of the most contested issues in the church today. ...
