Dra. Maria Tormo Dominguez, Head of the ICB Monthly Case Department:
This month's bioethics case examines the ethical and legal challenges physicians face when divorced or separated parents request information about their shared children's medical care. The recommended approach avoids extreme measures, focusing instead on the best interests of the child while safeguarding the trust essential to the physician-patient relationship. Our aim is to uphold ethical obligations and protect both the child's well-being and the integrity of medical confidentiality.
