Abstract

The Ethics Committee recommends that in vitro fertilization centers develop patient-centered policies regarding requests for futile treatment. In most cases, clear communication can avoid a direct confiict, but clinicians ethically may refuse to provide treatment believed to be futile or to carry a very poor prognosis. In certain instances, clinicians may provide limited treatment, which they judge likely to be futile, but must be vigilant in their presentation of risks, benefits, and alternatives. This version replaces the previously published draft of this name last published in 2019.
Tratamiento de fertilidad cuando el pronóstico es muy pobre o fútil: una opinión del Comité de Ética
El Comité de Ética recomienda que los centros de fertilización in vitro desarrollen políticas centradas en el paciente con respecto a solicitudes de tratamientos fútiles. En la mayoría de los casos, una comunicación clara puede evitar un conflicto directo, pero los médicos, éticamente, pueden negarse a proporcionar un tratamiento que consideren fútil o con un pronóstico muy pobre. En ciertos casos, los médicos pueden ofrecer un tratamiento limitado, que juzguen probablemente fútil, pero deben ser cuidadosos en la presentación de los riesgos, beneficios y alternativas. Esta versión reemplaza el borrador previamente publicado con este nombre, que fue publicado por última vez en 2019.

预后极差或无用的生育治疗:伦理委员会的意见。
伦理委员会建议体外受精中心制定以患者为中心的有关无效治疗请求的政策。在大多数情况下,明确的沟通可以避免直接冲突,但临床医生可以从伦理角度出发,拒绝提供被认为是无效或预后极差的治疗。在某些情况下,临床医生可以提供他们认为可能是无效的有限治疗,但在介绍风险、益处和替代方案时必须保持警惕。本版本取代了之前发布的本名称草案,本名称最后发布于 2019 年。
