Clinical use of placebo treatments may undermine the trust of patients: a response to Gold and Lichtenberg
Journal of Medical Ethics 40 (11):787-788 (2014)
Abstract
There is an obvious need for a critical discussion of the concepts ‘placebo’ and ‘placebo effect’. In a recent paper on the use of placebos in clinical medicine, Gold and Lichtenberg note the conceptual difficulties but use the terminology in a confused way throughout their paper. In our response, we demonstrate these problems with a few examples from their paper.Author's Profile
