Kathlynn Stone Interview

Neurologists are facing new ethical and legal challenges for the care of their patients. From end-of-life counseling and palliative care to organ donation after euthanasia, new controversies are emerging. Kathlyn Stone investigates. Only a few nations have legalized euthanasia or physician-assisted suicide. In the Netherlands and Belgium, euthanasia is permitted by lethal injection, typically with barbiturates and muscle relaxants given by a physician. In physician-assisted suicide, a physician writes a prescription for a drug that the patient self-administers. Switzerland enacted its physician-assisted suicide law in 1942. It is the only nation that allows non-residents to come to the country for suicide assistance, and a physician’s direct involvement in end-of-life services is not required.
Two US states have legalized physician-assisted suicide for the terminally ill. In Oregon, which enacted its Death with Dignity Act in 1997, terminally ill people can lawfully end their lives through the voluntary self-administration of lethal medications, prescribed by a physician for that specific purpose. Washington state voters passed an initiative modeled on the Oregon law during the last general election in November 2008. The law allows terminally ill adults with fewer than 6 months to live to request lethal doses of medication from general medical and osteopathic physicians.
A legal ruling could make Montana the third US state to offer protection for physicians who help people to die. As The Lancet Neurology went to press, the Montana Supreme Court was scheduled to hear oral arguments on Sept 2, 2009, in Baxter vs Montana and has up to 1 year to decide whether to uphold a district court ruling in favor of doctor-assisted suicide. Robert Baxter was one of two patients and four physicians who filed a joint suit for the right to end life. Without clear legal protections physicians, family members, and members of right-to-die groups have been subject to arrest and incarceration for helping a patient with a terminal disease or who is in intractable pain to die. In this situation, living wills or other types of advanced directives can step in—these are legal documents that allow a patient to convey their decisions about end-of-life care while they are still capable of making medical decisions. Advanced directives most often specify that a patient does not want certain kinds of treatment such as resuscitation or artificially administered nutrition and hydration if they become comatose or if there is no chance of recovery. However, a patient might also use a directive to specify continued treatment no matter how ill they are.
In the USA, a provision about advanced directives has become a polarising feature of the current health-care reform discussion. Public discussion on topics relating to health care, particularly end-of-life matters, are being hotly debated in town hall forums with legislators and in the media. On July 14, nine members of the US House of Representatives introduced HR3200, the health-care reform bill, backed by the US President, Barack Obama. Among its many components, the bill includes section 1233, Advance Care Planning Consultation, which requires Medicare (a federally funded and managed program covering an estimated 38 million elderly individuals) to reimburse physicians for one end-of-life counseling session for the elderly every 5 years. The section also provides for advance directive training of health-care professionals.
