Ethical considerations in kidney failure care for children. Each circle represent stakeholders in pediatric kidney failure care—the patient, caregivers and the healthcare team with their key clinical and ethical needs in colored text and boxes. The key interests of each stakeholder with regards to the other are represented in the overlap of their respective circles. Potential targets to support achieving these interests and overcoming ethical challenges are listed in each stakeholder's domain. As a central clinical and ethical requirement, shared decision-making is at the center of pediatric kidney failure care.
