Nursing Theory The Ethical Implications Thesis

(Newman, 1) Here, it can be evidenced that the empathy accorded by the theoretical framework will provide an ideological umbrella for how best to address one's condition while simultaneously abiding the regulatory medical requirements common to most forms of modern treatment. This means possessing a degree of pertinent information where nursing theory is concerned that will allow for such pragmatism and a firm understanding of the practices pertinent to kidney donation as denoted in the annotated bibliography provided here below.

The article cites the possibility that this new procedure could help to encourage potential donors.

The article details several aspects of the story that are of interest to us. Particularly, that the man ultimately suffered the need for a transplant of his own causes investigation into the potential dangers of being a live, healthy kidney donor. Ultimately, research suggests this to be a rare case, with one study noting that of 3700 donors in one trial, only 11 suffered this outcome.
