Pediatric Donation to Save the Life of a Sibling

July 10, 2023 -
12:00pm to 1:00pm

Abstract: Participants will discuss the ethics of pediatric bone marrow donation and legal guidelines for such donation. Differences between pediatric bone marrow donation and pediatric solid organ donation will also be considered. Recommended readings focus on criteria for asking children to donate and on donation to siblings. (Continuing medical education credit will be available.)

The Center for Bioethics & Health Law’s Clinical Ethics Forum brings together Pitt faculty (including law, medicine, nursing, and philosophy scholars), Pitt students, trainees, and UPMC staff for ethics discussions including journal clubs, policy discussions, and case conferences.
