Définition(s)

  • The medical profession in the United States has experienced a shift in ethics and values over the past 3 decades, from a position of paternalism to an emphasis on patient autonomy. As such, individuals are becoming increasingly involved in their medical care, especially with regard to decision making near the end of life.
