Long detailed description of the plot: Last Rights Rescuing the End of Life from the Medical System, written by Stephen Kiernan, delves into the complex and poignant issue of how the medical system treats the dying, highlighting the disconnect between the desires of patients and their families and the interventions provided by the medical establishment. The book explores the evolution of technology and its impact on the end of life experience, emphasizing the need for a personal paradigm that prioritizes human comfort, dignity, and the expressed wishes of patients and their loved ones. In the 1970s, most Americans died quickly and suddenly from heart attacks, strokes, cancer, or accidents. However, over the past three decades, medical advances have significantly extended our lives and transformed the way we die. This has led to a disconnect between how patients want to live out the end of their lives and how the medical system continues to treat the dying with extensive interventions, often without regard for pain management, mental clarity, or even the stated desires of patients and their families. Through surveys, interviews, and intimate portraits of individuals from diverse backgrounds, including the dying, their families, and the doctors and nurses who care for them, this book sheds light on the challenges faced by those nearing the end of their lives.
Подробное описание сюжета: Последние права, спасающие конец жизни из медицинской системы, написанные Стивеном Кирнаном, углубляются в сложный и острый вопрос о том, как медицинская система лечит умирающих, подчеркивая разрыв между желаниями пациентов и их семьи и вмешательства, предоставляемые медицинским учреждением. Книга исследует эволюцию технологий и их влияние на опыт конца жизни, подчеркивая необходимость личной парадигмы, которая отдает приоритет человеческому комфорту, достоинству и выраженным пожеланиям пациентов и их близких. В 1970-х годах большинство американцев умирали быстро и внезапно от сердечных приступов, инсультов, рака или несчастных случаев. Однако за последние три десятилетия медицинские достижения значительно продлили нашу жизнь и изменили то, как мы умираем. Это привело к разрыву между тем, как пациенты хотят прожить конец своей жизни, и тем, как медицинская система продолжает лечить умирающих с помощью обширных вмешательств, часто без учета управления болью, ясности ума или даже заявленных желаний пациентов и их семьи. Посредством опросов, интервью и интимных портретов людей из разных слоев общества, включая умирающих, их семьи, а также врачей и медсестер, которые заботятся о них, эта книга проливает свет на проблемы, с которыми сталкиваются те, кто приближается к концу своей жизни.
Description détaillée de l'intrigue : s derniers droits qui sauvent la fin de vie du système médical, écrits par Stephen Kirnan, s'enfoncent dans la question complexe et aiguë de la façon dont le système médical traite les mourants, soulignant le fossé entre les désirs des patients et de leur famille et les interventions fournies par l'établissement médical. livre explore l'évolution des technologies et leur impact sur les expériences de fin de vie, soulignant la nécessité d'un paradigme personnel qui privilégie le confort humain, la dignité et les souhaits exprimés des patients et de leurs proches. Dans les années 1970, la plupart des Américains mouraient rapidement et soudainement de crises cardiaques, d'AVC, de cancer ou d'accidents. Cependant, au cours des trois dernières décennies, les progrès médicaux ont considérablement prolongé nos vies et changé notre façon de mourir. Cela a conduit à un fossé entre la façon dont les patients veulent vivre la fin de leur vie et la façon dont le système médical continue de traiter les mourants par de vastes interventions, souvent sans tenir compte de la gestion de la douleur, de la clarté d'esprit ou même des désirs déclarés des patients et de leur famille. À travers des sondages, des interviews et des portraits intimes de personnes de différents horizons, y compris des mourants, leur famille, ainsi que les médecins et les infirmières qui s'occupent d'eux, ce livre met en lumière les défis auxquels sont confrontés ceux qui approchent de la fin de leur vie.
Descripción detallada de la trama: últimos derechos que salvan vidas del sistema médico, escritos por Stephen Kiernan, ahondan en la compleja y aguda cuestión de cómo el sistema médico trata a los moribundos, acentuando la brecha entre los deseos de los pacientes y sus familias y las intervenciones proporcionadas por el centro médico. libro explora la evolución de la tecnología y su impacto en la experiencia del fin de la vida, destacando la necesidad de un paradigma personal que priorice la comodidad humana, la dignidad y los deseos expresados de los pacientes y sus seres queridos. En la década de 1970, la mayoría de los estadounidenses morían rápida y repentinamente a causa de ataques cardíacos, accidentes cerebrovasculares, cáncer o accidentes. n embargo, en las últimas tres décadas, los avances médicos han prolongado significativamente nuestras vidas y han cambiado la forma en que morimos. Esto ha llevado a una brecha entre cómo los pacientes quieren vivir el final de sus vidas y cómo el sistema médico sigue tratando a los moribundos a través de extensas intervenciones, muchas veces sin tener en cuenta el manejo del dolor, la claridad mental o incluso los deseos declarados de los pacientes y su familia. A través de encuestas, entrevistas y retratos íntimos de personas de diferentes orígenes, incluidos los moribundos, sus familias, así como los médicos y enfermeras que los cuidan, este libro arroja luz sobre los problemas que enfrentan quienes se acercan al final de sus vidas.
Ausführliche Beschreibung der Handlung: Die letzten Rechte, die das Ende des bens aus dem medizinischen System retten, geschrieben von Stephen Kirnan, vertiefen sich in die komplexe und akute Frage, wie das medizinische System Sterbende behandelt, und betonen die Kluft zwischen den Wünschen der Patienten und ihrer Familie und den Interventionen der medizinischen Einrichtung. Das Buch untersucht die Entwicklung der Technologie und ihre Auswirkungen auf die Erfahrung des Endes des bens und betont die Notwendigkeit eines persönlichen Paradigmas, das dem menschlichen Komfort, der Würde und den geäußerten Wünschen der Patienten und ihrer Angehörigen Vorrang einräumt. In den 1970er Jahren starben die meisten Amerikaner schnell und plötzlich an Herzinfarkten, Schlaganfällen, Krebs oder Unfällen. In den letzten drei Jahrzehnten haben medizinische Fortschritte unser ben jedoch erheblich verlängert und die Art und Weise, wie wir sterben, verändert. Dies führte zu einer Lücke zwischen der Art und Weise, wie Patienten das Ende ihres bens leben wollen, und der Art und Weise, wie das medizinische System weiterhin Sterbende durch umfangreiche Interventionen behandelt, oft ohne Rücksicht auf Schmerzmanagement, geistige Klarheit oder sogar die erklärten Wünsche der Patienten und ihrer Familie. Durch Umfragen, Interviews und intime Porträts von Menschen mit unterschiedlichem Hintergrund, darunter Sterbende, ihre Familien sowie Ärzte und Krankenschwestern, die sich um sie kümmern, beleuchtet dieses Buch die Herausforderungen, denen sich diejenigen gegenübersehen, die sich dem Ende ihres bens nähern.

Konu detayı: Stephen Kiernan tarafından yazılan tıbbi sistemden elde edilen en son yaşam sonu hakları, hastaların ve ailelerinin arzuları ile sağlık kuruluşunun sağladığı müdahaleler arasındaki boşluğu vurgulayarak, tıbbi sistemin ölmekte olan kişilere nasıl davrandığına dair karmaşık ve zorlu soruyu araştırıyor. Kitap, teknolojinin evrimini ve yaşam sonu deneyimleri üzerindeki etkisini araştırıyor, insan konforunu, onurunu ve hastaların ve sevdiklerinin ifade edilen isteklerini önceleyen kişisel bir paradigmaya duyulan ihtiyacı vurguluyor. 1970'lerde, çoğu Amerikalı kalp krizi, felç, kanser veya kazalardan hızlı ve aniden öldü. Bununla birlikte, son otuz yılda, tıbbi gelişmeler hayatımızı büyük ölçüde uzattı ve ölme şeklimizi değiştirdi. Bu, hastaların hayatlarının sonunu nasıl yaşamak istedikleri ile tıbbi sistemin, genellikle ağrı yönetimi, zihinsel netlik ve hatta hastaların ve ailelerinin belirtilen istekleri dikkate alınmadan, kapsamlı müdahalelerle ölmekte olan hastaları nasıl tedavi etmeye devam ettiği arasında bir kopukluğa yol açmıştır. Anketler, röportajlar ve ölmekte olan, aileleri ve onlara bakan doktorlar ve hemşireler de dahil olmak üzere farklı geçmişlerden gelen insanların samimi portreleri aracılığıyla, bu kitap hayatlarının sonuna yaklaşanların karşılaştığı zorluklara ışık tutuyor.
تفاصيل الحبكة: تتعمق أحدث حقوق نهاية العمر من النظام الطبي، التي كتبها ستيفن كيرنان، في السؤال المعقد والشائك حول كيفية تعامل النظام الطبي مع المحتضر، مما يسلط الضوء على الفجوة بين رغبات المرضى وعائلاتهم و التدخلات التي تقدمها المنشأة الصحية. يستكشف الكتاب تطور التكنولوجيا وتأثيرها على تجارب نهاية العمر، مع التأكيد على الحاجة إلى نموذج شخصي يعطي الأولوية للراحة الإنسانية والكرامة والرغبات المعلنة للمرضى وأحبائهم. في السبعينيات، توفي معظم الأمريكيين بسرعة وفجأة بسبب النوبات القلبية أو السكتات الدماغية أو السرطان أو الحوادث. على مدى العقود الثلاثة الماضية، أدى التقدم الطبي إلى إطالة حياتنا بشكل كبير وتغيير طريقة وفاتنا. وقد أدى ذلك إلى انفصال بين الطريقة التي يريد بها المرضى أن يعيشوا نهاية حياتهم وكيف يستمر النظام الطبي في علاج المحتضرين بتدخلات مكثفة، غالبًا دون اعتبار لإدارة الألم أو الوضوح العقلي أو حتى الرغبات المعلنة للمرضى و عائلاتهم. من خلال الاستطلاعات والمقابلات والصور الحميمة لأشخاص من خلفيات متنوعة، بما في ذلك المحتضرون وعائلاتهم والأطباء والممرضات الذين يعتنون بهم، يلقي هذا الكتاب الضوء على التحديات التي يواجهها أولئك الذين يقتربون من نهاية حياتهم.
