Abstract:

Drawing on debates concerning crisis-laden horizons and the affective modes and narrative templates of environmentalism, this paper examines claims about how the feel of the affective present might or should be organised. To do so, it focuses on the appearance of futility in seabird research and conservation to consider what it reveals about injunctions to act and jarring encounters with crisis. Caught between futility’s capacity to both enliven and flatten, the paper examines the contentious nature of futility’s public utterance and its persuasive expression, to ask what futility does to the grip of ideas and claims about how things ought to be done. Taking leave from debates on how to stave off paralysis in an era of extinction and loss, the paper focuses on what it feels like to dwell in a refigured present in which futility becomes a corporeal condition. In doing so, the paper reflects on how limits can impose themselves in ways that are not addressed in debates over what constitutes good or bad affect or appropriate forms of address. It finishes by raising questions about what happens when researchers become responsible for stoking negative affect.

Abstract:

Futility has had a rough time in recent medical ethics literature. From about 1987 to 1996, various writers and groups tried to define futility within the context of medical treatment, but without success. Baruch Brody and Amir Halevy give an excellent summary of the morass in their 1995 article “Is Futility a Futile Concept?” where they argue that none of the then-proposed definitions succeed. While a smattering of other attempted definitions have appeared since then, for the most part writers about futility have found it more profitable to stop trying to define futility and instead move in a different direction, that of figuring out how to resolve disputes where patient families want more treatment which clinicians think is futile. This is, for example, the approach taken by the Texas Advance Directives Act (1999), which was the first futility legislation in North America and is often seen as an appropriate template. The idea embodied in this influential legislation is that our energies should be focused on creating a process which we can use to resolve difficult cases, and which everyone finds legitimate, rather than in trying to find a definition which everyone finds legitimate.

Abstract:

The challenge of determining that therapeutic intervention is futile is a recurrent ethical theme in critical care medicine. The process by which that determination is reached often involves demanding collaborative and interdisciplinary conversation and deliberation within the context of hospital policy, including ethics committee guidelines. The subsequent decision as to what happens next depends on resources, such as palliative care services, hospice, other hospital protocols, and, of course, family support.

Abstract:

AbstractIn the era of an aging population and escalating healthcare costs, the futility debate has become the object of extended critical attention. The issue has divided experts in relevant fields into two camps. The proponents of medical futility defend the physician's exclusive right to determine the futility of treatment and decide whether treatment should be withheld or withdrawn. On the other hand, opponents believe that a discourse of power lies at the heart of the futility debate. They believe that medical futility was constructed, in part, as a means of enhancing the physician's domination in a context wherein medical authority was threatened. This paper presents some current approaches to the futility debate and highlights positions taken by physicians and bioethicists. It concludes that establishing an operational guideline, either at hospital or national level, is a critical requirement for resolving problems posed by futility. It suggests that policies should not be based on either excessive patient's autonomy or physician's paternalism.

Abstract:

What I propose in this article is application of existing dispute resolution practices that take place outside the courtroom to the negotiating that takes place between health providers and families when they try to reach agreement about the limits of medical care that arguably is futile. Specifically, I focus on a bargaining paradigm that is associated with divorce proceedings, and suggest how this paradigm is at work in the conflict about futile treatment. At issue are not the well-publicized aspects of high profile cases, but the rather unpublicized bargaining that goes no further than the clinical setting.Physicians and families who disagree about the futility of medical treatments frequently engage in give-and-take exchanges about whether to start disputed treatments, about what period of time might comprise a reasonable trial period if a treatment is to be administered, and about when and how to transfer a patient to another facility if the dispute cannot be resolved.
