Ethics case commentary: the complexities of testing children for brain death in cases of parental refusal

Center Director of Clinical Ethics Jonathan Marron, MD, MPH published an open-access ethics case commentary in the American Journal of Bioethics, arguing that testing a child for brain death despite parental refusal is "not an ethically preferable option." The commentary responds to a specific case summarized in the journal. "Good ethics require good facts," Marron writes.
