A Context for Thinking About Complementary and Alternative Medicine and Ethics -- Complementry and Alternative Medicine -- Complementary and Alternative Medicine -- Advising Patients and Communicating About Complementary and Alternative Medicine -- Patient and Medical Education on Complementary and Alternative Medicine -- Legal and Risk Management Issues in Complementary and Alternative Medicne -- Whose Evidence, Which Methods?. Complementary and Alternative Medicine examines the real-life implications of patient issues and the healthcare system in which care is delivered. Because complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) are not presently considered to be a part of conventional medicine, this book discusses the effect that CAM has on patients, physicians, healthcare, and policymakers. Also included are the implications that CAM has on traditional patient-physician relationships as well as the physician's ethical obligations on this subject. |
