AB - Medical decision-making is influenced by a variety of factors, including cultural norms, regional
practices, patient values, physician responsibilities, and patient autonomy. Whether or not a patient’s
family members should also influence the medical decision-making process is a legitimate question. This
article defends the view that it is appropriate to involve families in the medical decision-making process
at least in those cultures in which the family is the dominant social unit; in such cultures, it is necessary to
recognize the rights of a patient’s family in making medical decisions.
