It was found that foreign medical staff bore multiple moral pressures and impacts in the face of the epidemic, including the collision between medical practice and utilitarian policy, the inability to meet personal needs, the rapid transformation of medical mode, and a variety of comprehensive factors. Therefore, the moral injury of foreign medical staff is particularly prominent. In order to avoid and reduce the occurrence of moral injury, it is necessary to strengthen the cultivation of moral resilience, provide psychological and social support, and carry out personalized treatment for medical staff.

Nursing Ethics from the Perspective of Moral Injury / 中国医学伦理学

Due to the specialty of the profession, nursing staff often face more traumatic events in which their self-moral cognition is contrary to the reality, and gradually turn to moral injury on this basis. The level of nursing ethical literacy of nursing staff greatly affects their differences in moral cognition and the strength of moral resilience, thus determining the development and recovery of moral injury. The latest ethical code for nurses, the Expert Consensus on Nursing Ethics for the Prevention and Control of Major Infectious Diseases, has improved the rights and interests of nursing staff. The active practice of this code can help nursing staff effectively respond to the endogenous and exogenous injury sources brought about by the epidemic, eliminate negative moral cognition, improve the moral resilience of nursing staff, as well as has positive effects on the prevention of moral injury for nursing staff.

Analysis of Occurrence Mechanism of Moral Injury / 中国医学伦理学

The occurrence of moral injury begins with combat behaviors which break the ethical rules of fair-ness and justice, good and evil, and the value of life. Those behaviors effect on the moral intuition formed by indi-vidual moral beliefs, cultural traditions, and personality traits, and acts on the moral reasoning of the soldiers, thus this traumatic event is internalized into a moral event. And then the strength of the moral events or its re-experi-ence breaks through the tenacity of moral emotion, therefore the moral subject moves towards moral injury, which is manifested as self-condemnation, withdrawal, self-injury, killing, and other cognitive or emotional symptoms. As self-condemnation intensifies, the victim will fall into an increasingly vicious circle of moral injury. Mean-while, self-forgiveness means a way of restoration and reconciliation, which asks the victim to forgive himself and to adjust moral conflicts in time.
