    The carnage of substandard research during the COVID-19 pandemic: a call for quality.Katrina A. Bramstedt - 2020 - Journal of Medical Ethics 46 (12):803-807.
    Worldwide there are currently over 1200 research studies being performed on the topic of COVID-19. Many of these involve children and adults over age 65 years. There are also numerous studies testing investigational vaccines on healthy volunteers. No research team is exempt from the pressures and speed at which COVID-19 research is occurring. And this can increase the risk of honest error as well as misconduct. To date, 33 papers have been identified as unsuitable for public use and either retracted, (...)

    Applying safeguards of research integrity to unethical organ donation and transplantation.Katrina A. Bramstedt - 2020 - Journal of Medical Ethics 46 (10):685-686.
    Higgins’ et al recent paper1 presents a well-thought ethical analysis of the problems associated with the publication of unethical transplant research. More generally, research ethics committees never allow the use or reuse of data that has been collected without their required approval. Similarly, in many judicial settings, evidence is generally inadmissible when it is gathered illegally.2 Thus, journals and other publishers should follow in their footsteps and also roadblock any associated publications. Moreover, unethical organ donation and transplantation research is rife (...)

    A 10-year follow up of publishing ethics in China: what is new and what is unchanged.Jun Xu & Katrina A. Bramstedt - 2019 - Research Integrity and Peer Review 4 (1).
    BackgroundOrgan donation and transplantation in China are ethically complex due to questionable informed consent and the use of prisoners as donors. Publishing works from China can be problematic. The objective of this study was to perform a 10-year follow up on Chinese journals active in donation and transplant publishing regarding the evolution of their publishing guidelines.MethodsEleven Chinese journals were analyzed for 7 properties: (1) ethics committee approval; (2) procedure consent; (3) publishing consent; (4) authorship criteria; (5) conflict of interest; (6) (...)

    Antibodies as Currency: COVID-19’s Golden Passport.Katrina A. Bramstedt - 2020 - Journal of Bioethical Inquiry 17 (4):687-689.
    Due to COVID-19, the fragile economy, travel restrictions, and generalized anxieties, the concept of antibodies as a “declaration of immunity” or “passport” is sweeping the world. Numerous scientific and ethical issues confound the concept of an antibody passport; nonetheless, antibodies can be seen as a potential currency to allow movement of people and resuscitation of global economics. Just as financial currency can be forged, so too is the potential for fraudulent antibody passports. This paper explores matters of science, ethics, and (...)

    Arguments for ‘ocular donation’ as standardised terminology to reduce the ‘ick factor’ of ‘eye donation’.Katrina A. Bramstedt - 2022 - Journal of Medical Ethics 48 (11):935-936.
    This brief report presents the global problem of the shortfall of donor corneal tissue for transplantation, a potential root cause (‘ick factor’ language), and a potential solution (modification of ‘ick factor’ language). Specifically, use of the term ‘eye donation’ is a potential hurdle to ocular tissue donation as it can stimulate the ‘ick factor.’ Verbiage such as ‘ocular (eye tissue)’ could be a method of providing terminology that is less emotive than ‘eye donor’ or ‘eye donation.’ The field of transplantation (...)

    This is a review of the film Big Eyes. Adapted from a true story about artist Margaret Keane, the overarching theme of the movie is plagiarism. While most people think of written works such as books and articles being plagiarized, Big Eyes gives viewers insight into the world of stolen works of visual art, namely paintings. The victim finds moral courage through religion, while the thief lives in denial until death. Anyone with an interest in art, law, or psychiatry will (...)

    (2 other versions)Bioethicists: Practitioners of applied philosophy.Katrina A. Bramstedt - 2005 - Philosophical Practice 1 (2):77-81.
    Advances in science and technology have created a plethora of medical therapies in various forms including drugs, devices, and equipment. Many of these therapies are not curative, however, and patients sometimes find themselves being more burdened than benefited by them. These situations result in ethical dilemmas for which the bioethicist is sometimes consulted to resolve. Using philosophical principles of maximizing good, minimizing harm, being just, and respecting the values of others, the bioethicist counsels patients, families, and hospital personnel, sometimes functioning (...)

    Exploring the gap in healthcare for injured and uninsured research participants in the United States.Katrina A. Bramstedt - 2007 - Monash Bioethics Review 26 (3):11-21.
    In the United States 46 million people are uninsured and it is from within this population that many ‘normal, healthy’ research participants are selected. Research institutions and sponsors are not required to compensate or provide free treatment to participants when they incur research-related harm, and most studies do not stipulate the provision of free medical care to treat research-related adverse events. The consequence for uninsured participants is that they must assume these medical costs unless they successfully sue the study sponsor (...)

    Examining the Root Cause of Surrogate Conflicts in the Intensive Care Unit and General Wards.Katrina A. Bramstedt & Allison Neyhart Rubin - 2010 - Monash Bioethics Review 29 (1):38-48.
    This study is an analysis of surrogate-focused ethics consultations in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and the general wards (Ward) of a large community hospital in Northern California. We identified the major themes of surrogate-focused ethics consultations to better understand the root cause of surrogate conflicts, and identified the similarities and differences between surrogate-based conflicts in the two settings. Consults requested because the surrogate had desires that conflicted with the physicians medical opinion of ‘best interest’, or cases involving surrogates not (...)

    Last Cab to Darwin is a film about physician-assisted suicide—specifically, a cab driver diagnosed with metastatic cancer and his journey seeking the “machine” that will help him end his life. Along the way, Rex, who has never had a family, creates one, and the result is a reshaping of his values about life, death, and dying.

    Left ventricular assist devices: An ethical analysis.Katrina A. Bramstedt - 1999 - Science and Engineering Ethics 5 (1):89-96.
    United States statistics continue to indicate that the human donor heart pool does not and will not meet the great demand for hearts. For those patients unresponsive to maximal medical therapy (approximately 60,000 patients per year), cardiac transplantation is currently their best hope for increased survival. To address the need for additional end-stage congestive heart failure (CHF) therapy options, three medical device manufacturers have developed implantable left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) which act as a pump for hemodynamic support of the (...)

Method Presented here is an ethical analysis of stalking behavior by physicians and medical students, with focus on the case of Teleka Patrick, MD (a psychiatry resident practicing medicine while under a restraining order due to her alleged stalking behavior).

The writer and director of this Oscar-nominated Polish movie is a film student and a young father to a baby born with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome. Using simple cinematography, the film is an autobiographical exploration of the fearful, tearful, and sometimes joyful days and nights in the lives of the child and his parents.

    Expecting Saving Mr. Banks to be a jolly jaunt about the creative development of the movie Mary Poppins (1964), I found myself waiting endlessly for the “jolliness” to begin—it never did. In fact, rather than joy, there was an ever-present sensation of tension as I watched the film. Having moved house myself in recent days (during a Queensland heat wave), the scenes of the Goff family leaving their home and trekking across hot, dusty Queensland were very emotional. However, seeing the (...)

    The Freelance Ethics Consultant: Practice Model and Opportunities.Katrina A. Bramstedt - 2022 - Journal of Clinical Ethics 33 (1):69-76.
    The first ethicists of the 1970s paved the way for the three most familiar models of clinical ethics consultation: (1) a single consultant, (2) a member of a hospital ethics committee, and (3) a member of a subcommittee of a hospital ethics committee. Within the single consultant model there are (A) the lone ethicist (a member of hospital staff, working alone when consulting) and (B) the independent ethicist (a freelance, external consultant, working alone). This article discusses the structure and opportunities (...)

    This is a review of the 2013 film Words and Pictures. Surprisingly, the film is not about justifying a role for the humanities in education but, rather, a battle to determine which is more valuable—literature or art?. At a time when many schools question if these have any value at all, this film uses passionate and afflicted teachers to explore which is most important and finds valuable intersections between the two.
