Abstract:

Introduction Patients who are Jehovah’s Witnesses pose difficult ethical and moral dilemmas for surgeons because of their refusal to receive blood and blood products. This article outlines the personal experiences of six Jehovah’s Witnesses who underwent major abdominal surgery at a single institution and also summarises the literature on the perioperative care of these patients. Methods The patients recorded their thoughts and the dilemmas they faced during their surgical journey. We also reviewed the recent literature on the ethical principles involved in treating such patients and strategies recommended to make surgery safer. Results All patients were supported in their decision making by the clinical team and the Hospital Liaison Committee for Jehovah’s Witnesses. The patients recognised the ethical and moral difficulties experienced by clinicians in this setting. However, they described taking strength from their belief in Jehovah. A multitude of techniques are available to minimise the risk associated with major surgery in Jehovah’s Witness patients, many of which have been adopted to minimise unnecessary use of blood products in general. Nevertheless, the risks of catastrophic haemorrhage and consequent mortality remain an unresolved issue for the treating team. Conclusions Respect for a patient’s autonomy in this setting is the overriding ethical principle, with detailed discussion forming an important part of the preparation of a Jehovah’s Witness for major abdominal surgery. Clinicians must be diligent in the documentation of the patient’s wishes to ensure all members of the team can abide by these.

Abstract:

Supportive management of critically ill patients with anemia often involves packed red blood cell transfusion. Jehovah’s Witness’ refusal of blood products because of their religious beliefs can render these situations challenging. Successful adaptation of medical management in Jehovah’s Witness’ with severe anemia provides physicians with a distinct opportunity to question common transfusion practices and learn about anemia. We present a case of a 43 year-old Jehovahs Witness who presented with autoimmune hemolytic anemia – cold agglutinin disease. His hemoglobin nadired at 2g/dL. The patient was successfully managed to recovery with corticosteroids, rituximab, folic acid and an erythropoeitin stimulating agent. To our knowledge this is the lowest Hgb that a patient with life threatening cold agglutinin disease survived without the use of any blood product transfusion. Such cases afford a deeper appreciation of the body's ability to adapt to and recover from anemia without the use of exogenous blood. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract:

Although Jehovah’s Witnesses present a particular problem when undergoing surgery because of their refusal to accept stored blood, it is now quite common to undertake uncomplicated cardiac surgery in these patients. Complex or redo cardiac surgery however, is often associated with major blood loss, and is conventionally contraindicated in Jehovah’s Witnesses. We describe the perioperative management of a Jehovah’s Witness who underwent a resternotomy for mitral valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting having previously had an aortic valve replacement and mitral valve repair. The importance of a multidisciplinary approach to blood conservation is discussed.

Abstract:

AbstractDue to the curative potential and improvement in progression-free survival (PFS), high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is considered the standard of care for several hematologic malignancies, such as multiple myeloma, and lymphomas. ASCT typically involves support with blood product transfusion. Thus, difficulties arise when Jehovah’s Witness patients refuse blood transfusions. In order to demonstrate the safety of performing “bloodless” ASCT (BL-ASCT), we performed a retrospective analysis of 66 Jehovah's Witnesses patients who underwent BL-ASCT and 1114 non-Jehovah’s Witness patients who underwent transfusion-supported ASCT (TF-ASCT) at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center between January 2000 and September 2018. Survival was compared between the two groups. Transplant-related complications, mortality, engraftment time, length of hospital stay, and number of ICU transfers were characterized for the BL-ASCT group. One year survival was found to be 87.9% for both groups (P = 0.92). In the BL-ASCT group, there was one death prior to the 30 days post transplant due to CNS hemorrhage, and one death prior to 100 days due to sepsis. Based on our data, BL-ASCT can be safely performed with appropriate supportive measures, and we encourage community oncologists to promptly refer JW patients for transplant evaluation when ASCT is indicated.

Abstract:

Jehovah’s Witness patients pose a unique surgical challenge due to their refusal of transfusion of whole blood or major blood products. One of the surgical strategies is to offer the least invasive approach with the least likelihood of losing blood. In the context of surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease, endoluminal approaches such as transoral incisionless fundoplication represent an appropriate approach for Jehovah’s Witness patients. This patient is a devout Jehovah’s Witness who was troubled with gastroesophageal reflux disease for many years which was refractory to proton pump inhibitor therapy. Her standard preoperative workup showed that she was a candidate for transoral incisionless fundoplication. Surgery was performed by a transoral incisionless fundoplication certified surgeon and this patient was his second case. Patient had no immediate or long-term complications. She was successfully weaned off proton pump inhibitors. Transoral incisionless fundoplication is an appropriate option for Jehovah’s Witness patients with refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. This case report shows that the procedure is safe and durable, even in the early stage of the physician’s learning curve.

This thesis uses principles from Burke's Rhetoric of Identification to examine how apocalyptic prophecies foster and maintain an apocalyptic group identity. Jehovah's Witnesses were used as a sample apocalyptic group because they comprise a group with a heavy textual and symbolic focus on the apocalypse.

Abstract:

The study of social allies in the field of American Civil Rights and Liberties History is largely an underappreciated aspect of this historical era. This work argues that social allies and their stories are worthwhile histories that are beneficial to the study of American Civil Rights and Liberties using Louisiana lawyer Herman Lazard Midlo as a case study. Midlo worked as a Louisiana lawyer from the 1930s to 1960s and fought tirelessly for the religious liberties of the Jehovah’s Witness community in the state. His story shows how beneficial and consequential the actions of social allies have had and can have on the protection and expansion of civil rights and religious liberties.

Abstract:

This study focuses on the previous beliefs of persons who are active in Jehovas Witnesses. It also focuses on the circumstances which made the person enter the organisation. Seven persons, four women and three men were subjects for my question in this study. The question formulations are as follows: How does the person’s previous beliefs look like? Are there any circumstances which may have made the person enter Jehovas Witnesses? How does the membership in the organisation give the person meaning? The persons are all living in the area of Småland, in south of Sweden. The conclusion is that all of the informants have in some way expressed some sort of faith, weather it consists of a believe in God, a guardian angel or something else.

Abstract:

This study explores how intersecting identities based on disability, ethnicity and religion impact the wellbeing of deaf Uzbek Jehovah’s Witnesses in post-Soviet Uzbekistan. By analysing the collected ethnographic data and semi-structured interviews with deaf people, Islamic religious figures, and state officials in the capital city Tashkent, it provides the case of how a reaction of a majority religious group to the freedom of religious belief contributes to the marginalisation and exclusion of religious deaf minorities who were converted from Islam to the Jehovah’s Witnesses. The paper argues that the insensitivity of the dominant Muslim communities to the freedom of religious belief of deaf Uzbek Christian converts excluded them from their project activities and allocation of resources provided by the newly established Islamic Endowment Public charity foundation ‘Vaqf’. Deaf people in Uzbekistan are often stigmatised and discriminated against based on their disability identity, and religious inequality may further exacerbate existing challenges, lead to unintended exclusionary tendencies within the local deaf communities, and ultimately inhibit the formation of collective deaf identity and agency to advocate for their legitimate rights and interests.
