[Placebos and placeboids in clinical practice: conceptual and ethical considerations]. Nervenarzt. 2020 Jul 02;: Authors: Schöne-Seifert B Abstract Reflecting on results of recent placebo research, this article analyzes relevant key concepts and ethical positions. "Placeboids" and possibly open-label placebo treatments should replace any deceptive use of sham medication. Their use should give rise to a critical consideration of the modern patient-physician relationship. PMID: 32617632 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
