Application of Narrative Medicine in the Mediation of Medical Disputes / 中国医学伦理学

ABSTRACT

This paper analyzed a medical dispute mediation case through three main elements of narrative medicine including attention,representation,and affiliation.It discussed the significant impact of narrative medical skills on medical dispute resolution.The three elements reflected in the mediation of medical disputes are to adopt patients' all requests without preset positions,guide both sides to narrative the treatment process,and remedy the impaired doctor-patient relationship.In the process of current medical dispute mediation,the resolution of medical disputes keeps at a superficial level,causes the incomplete restoration of impaired doctor-patient relationship,and therefore influences the neutrality of mediation,just because of the lack of those three elements.
