Johns Hopkins Hospital was ordered to pay $261 million to the Kowalski family following a lawsuit revealing ethical and systemic failures in medical care. The story follows Maya, diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Ketamine treatment turns into tragedy when misunderstandings lead to false accusations against the mother. Maya is separated from her parents, facing devastating consequences. This case highlights medical gaslighting. Lack of communication, institutional accountability, poor patient-physician relationships and non-maleficence contributed to this tragedy and raises ethical questions about the use of experimental treatments. The story underscores the importance of a doctor-patient relationship based on trust and empathy, as well as the need for ongoing ethica training for health professionals. Bioethics must be fundamental in medical care to avoid tragedies such as that of the Kowalski family.

This paper presents, in the first part, the history of the CBE from its origin in 2007 until 2023. The second part analyzes in more detail the documents produced by the Committee in relation to abortion, euthanasia, and conscientious objection. The sources of information have been the annual reports and the reports and opinions produced by the Committee. Both the historical aspects and the analysis of the documents mentioned may be useful for those interested either in the development of national bioethics committees or in the topics to which the documents under consideration are devoted.
