medical decisions and ethics in the military context  

Definition

  • In either a military or civilian context, medical decisions can be divided into three general categories: (1) the decision whether to treat, (2) the decision when to treat, and (3) the decision how to treat. This entry looks at how the difference in the character and practice of military medicine influences these decisions.
