Ethical issues in surgical decision making concerning children with medically intractable epilepsy
2011, Epilepsy and BehaviorCitation Excerpt :The use of QALY outcomes to preoperative evaluation models may furthermore discriminate against those with a low quality of life to begin with by introducing a “double jeopardy.” First, patients suffer from their disabilities, and second, as a result of their illness, low priority is also given to treatments that can improve their lives [40,41]. In addition to endorsing a narrow definition of quality of life, this model may place excessive emphasis on longevity rather than individual lives and unjustly deny afflicted children access to potentially beneficial procedures.
