First buy extra super cialis 100 mg line, patients regard their spiritual health and physical health as equally 8 important. Fourth, many patients base 139 their health-care decisions on their spiritual or religious beliefs. Finally, patients suffering from religious, spiritual, and existential concerns may not inform their 139 clinicians about them. Because the goals of medicine are to cure disease when possible 140 and to relieve suffering always, including spirituality in clinical practice should be within the purview of the physician. First, many clinicians practice in the biomedical model in which spiritual matters seem less relevant. Second, fewer physicians than patients describe themselves as religious or maintain 9,141,142 spiritual orientations. Hence, the importance of spiritual matters to patients may be underestimated or unrecognized. Third, the effect of religious involvement and 141 spirituality on health outcomes is taught infrequently in medical training. Finally, the spiritual concerns of patients may not be addressed because of time constraints, lack of confidence in the effectiveness of spiritual care and 144 role uncertainty (e. Complementary therapies in neurology 236 Ethical issues Ethical issues are raised when one includes patient spirituality in clinical practice. Many patients derive hope and strength from their personal religious beliefs, and proselytizing to them may cause unnecessary harm. The ethical clinician would not make such recommendations, just as she or he would not recommend that patients marry or have 145 children, even though these activities are associated with health benefits. Finally, 25 religious and spiritual practices should not replace effective allopathic treatments. Some authors, however, claim that the religious and spiritual concerns of patients are private 145 and that clinicians should not inquire about them. However, a similar case could be made regarding inquiries about patient sexuality, substance abuse and other sensitive matters. These matters, formerly shunned by clinicians, are now discussed openly because of their potential effect on health.
