Seminar and Discussion Measures of Religion and Spirituality for Use in Health Research (Meeting Room A) Led by Harold G. Koenig, M.D., Director, Center for Spirituality, Theology and Health, Duke University What are the definitions of religion, spirituality and secular humanism?

There will be plenty of time for discussion on measurement and anything participants would like to talk about in the area of research. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 9:00 a.m. - 11:45 a.m.
Workshops 9:00 a.m. - 10:15 a.m. Workshop 1 -- Discover Wisdom and Inspire Change: Pain in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis - Digital Stories Made by Patients Reveal the Unexpected Finding of Pain Having Been a Catalyst for Positive Personal Growth (Glaxo) Led by Paivi Miettunen, MD, Associate Professor and Pediatric Rheumatologist in the Division of Pediatric Rheumatology at the Alberta Children's Hospital and the Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary. This workshop will include viewing of three patients' digital stories and a group discussion. The stories give a unique glimpse into the lives of kids living with a disease for "old people" and shows how they learn to cope with the challenges in their lives. The following themes of resilience, among others, will be illustrated by the stories: 1) Finding benefit in a chronic illness, 2) how meeting people with similar chronic condition can build personal strength and 3) the amazing ability of children to find hope and optimism despite a physically limiting painful illness. In addition, viewing of the digital stories will also allow health care workers to reflect on their roles in patient's illness journey and to remember to celebrate patients' individual strengths rather than just focusing on their limitations (e.g. illness). 9:00 a.m. - 10:15 a.m.
Workshop 2 -- Who's to Say What Counts and What Works? Exploring the Moral Narrative Around the Legitimacy of Pain and Pain Relief (Executive) Led by Margaret Peterson, PhD, MDiv, Professor of Theology and Psychology at Eastern University in St. David's, PA Read the literature associated with pain and pain relief, and it won't be long before you encounter the phrase "legitimate pain" (or, alternatively, "legitimate pain patient"). Legitimate, from the Latin legitimatus, "according to law." What law are we talking about here, that makes some pain (and perhaps some persons who complain of pain) legitimate, and some not? In this workshop we will consider: what counts as pain, what are acceptable ways to address pain, and who controls the narrative around pain and efforts to relieve or otherwise experience or respond to pain. This workshop will be of interest to clinicians, academics, pastors and anyone who is interested in reflecting theologically on the relationship between feeling good or bad, being good or bad, and the acceptability of various means to change how one feels from bad to good (or at least better). The format will be conversational, with lots of time and space allotted for questions and discussion. 9:00 a.m. - 10:15 a.m.
Workshop 3 -- Bio-Medical Issues: An Islamic Perspective (Jeffries) Led by Dr. Mohammad Yahya Alvi, FRCP, Chairman Board of Directors, Adams Compassionate Healthcare Network and Director of Health Education Programs, Adams Center, Sterling, Virginia. Organ transplants, euthanasia, and abortion are all issues that are heavily debated today. Many religious leaders are limited in their ability to join these discussions if they are referencing old opinions that considered outdated technology. Join us to hear and discuss some of the most recent Islamic religious opinions on these controversial procedures. 10:30 a.m. - 11:45 a.m.
Workshop 4 -- Religion/Spirituality: Help or Hindrance to Patient/Family Pain and Suffering in a Medical Crisis? (Glaxo) Led by Dr. Peggy Determeyer, Phd, MDiv, MBA, BCC is a retired board-certified chaplain and current McGee Fellow and Director of Community Bioethics and Aging Center for the Hope and Healing Center and Institute, Houston, TX, and Susan Gaeta, MD, Assistant Professor in the Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX The complexities of modern medicine have resulted in a variety of treatments for disease processes, some of which cause extreme discomfort. Each of these treatments is done to people with hoped-for improvements in their medical condition. At the same time, the individuals have particular characteristics of living that are affected by their treatments. Integrating an understanding of varying religious traditions with the patient's perspectives requires particular attention to detail, and necessitates time for ascertaining the ways in which care is integrated into patient-centered outcomes. In this workshop, the presenters will consider three different case studies based on actual patients from Buddhist, Islamic, and Christian traditions. At the end of the workshop, attendees will: understand fundamental aspects of suffering; relate suffering to key aspects of major religions; and integrate key communications tools for addressing patient suffering. 10:30 a.m. - 11:45 a.m.
Workshop 5 -- Transformational Responses to Pain and Suffering (Executive) Led by Mariana Cuceu, MD, MPH, PHD(c), Kaplan Medical and University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Gr. T. Popa Iasi, Romania What is pain and what is suffering? Can medicine alone address these complex feelings in the multitude of those afflicted? While scientific advancement continues to progress with new discoveries of investigational and treatment opportunities to address pain, it seems paradoxically to be increasing the suffering of our patients along this journey. The typical clinicians' approach to just cure the diseases alone without caring for the person as a whole is an approach that breaks the psychosomatic unity of a person which can result in a greater reality of suffering. It is profoundly clear that suffering, be it physical, mental, spiritual, or a dynamic interconnected reality of all these forms of suffering, that scientific and medical traditions struggle to both address and transform the reality of suffering into something greater than its primary effects. This workshop will address this clear difficulty of pain and suffering through two very complementary points of view. We will begin with the reflective thoughts on how Christianity can bring transformative responses to addressing pain and suffering. Secondly, we will present the perspective of Jewish philosopher, Emanuel Levinas on how addressing pain and suffering is not about escape or being freed from these very difficult states of existence. 12:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m. - Lunch (on your own)1:00 p.m. - 1:30 p.m. - Muslim Juma/Friday Prayers (Meet at Registration Table by 12:45 p.m. for trip to Duke Student Wellness Center.)
