Virtual Pediatric Grand Rounds (CME): Ethical Duties and Resources in a Pandemic
Alyssa Burgart, MD, MA, FAAP, David Magnus, PhD, Holly Tabor, PhD - Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics
In this session, three leading ethicists at the Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics walk you through the theories of resource allocation, the legal frameworks that allow such allocation plans to operate, and how certain populations, such as disabled people, are uniquely threatened by resource allocation.
Past session video recordings can also be viewed on the Lane Medical Library (SUNet/SHC/LPCH login), MediaSpace (SUNet Login), CME Webinar (Public accessible).

Session Description
The COVID-19 pandemic challenges healthcare delivery in previously unimagined ways. With evidence of overwhelmed health care systems across the world, healthcare systems must consider how they will respond ethically to suddenly scarce resources. In this session, three leading ethicists at the Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics walk you through the theories of resource allocation, the legal frameworks that allow such allocation plans to operate, and how certain populations, such as disabled people, are uniquely threatened by resource allocation.
Education Goals
- Attendees will be able to articulate and apply appropriate principles and theories to allocation problems.
- Attendees will understand the legal framework around allocation policies, including crisis standards of care and healthcare worker liability.
- Attendees will gain awareness of strengths and criticisms of different allocation proposals.
- Attendees will be able to describe current biases and discrimination toward disabled people in medicine and society, how these are emerging in the COVID-19 pandemic, and two possible solutions.
