Abstract
Ethical issues in health care arise from the perspectives of individual rights and clinical research. The advances in technologies for the treatment of cancer that come from clinical research have created new ethical issues. Bone marrow transplantation is such a case where research has the potential to benefit, but our resources to provide this lifesaving option are scarce. Ethical issues that nurses face in BMT include informed consent, concerns about the rights of donors, and the allocation of resources.
