Description

This Routledge volume examines the increasingly complex concept of the fetus as a patient in contemporary prenatal medicine. Drawing on interdisciplinary and international perspectives, the book explores how advances in prenatal testing and therapy have made the fetus more visible, examinable and treatable, leading physicians to recognise professional duties towards fetal development. The work critically evaluates both the usefulness and limitations of framing the fetus as a patient, addressing fundamental questions about what this designation actually means in clinical practice. By synthesising recent seminal developments in prenatal and fetal medicine with biomedical ethics and law, this text provides essential analysis for healthcare professionals, ethicists, legal scholars and policymakers grappling with the normative implications of this evolving medical paradigm.

Key Features

Routledge's comprehensive exploration of the contested concept of fetal patienthood in modern prenatal care and medicine.

Interdisciplinary and international perspective on how prenatal testing and therapy developments shape clinical understanding of fetal status.

Critical analysis of the normative and ethical implications embedded within the fetal patient framework for healthcare professionals.

Addresses the professional duties and responsibilities physicians face when treating the fetus as a distinct medical entity.
