不施行心肺復甦術之司法判決觀察【醫法新論】 試閱
An Observation on Judgments Related to Non-applying CPR
「安寧緩和醫療條例」施行迄今已逾20年,但關於「不施行心肺復甦術或維生醫療或予以終止或撤除」或「終止、撤除或不施行維持生命治療或人工營養及流體餵養」之執行,司法實務上迄今累積案例不足,未能回應醫療實務界所關注之諸多議題。另「病人自主權利法」才剛開始施行數年,未來對於安寧緩和醫療之臨床實務之影響,尚待觀察。
The Hospice Palliative Care Act has become effective for more than 20 years. Nevertheless, there are insufficient prior judicial decisions regarding “Non-applying CPR or LST, or termination or withdrawal of the same” or “termination, withdrawal, or withholding life-sustaining treatments, artificial nutrition and hydration” to response issues concerned by medical professionals. On the other hand, The Patient Right to Autonomy Act has become effective for just a few years and its impact remains to be observed.
