中文摘要

未成年人隨著年齡的不同,心智成熟度不一,當需要進行醫療行為時,是否自為同意已足,或需要輔助同意或代理同意,又是否依不同的醫療措施而有不同的規定,是對於未成年人醫療權益保護的重要議題。本文介紹醫事法規中有關未成年人醫療同意規定,並從中整理分析其規範全貌。我國法對未成年人醫療同意之立場,大致上以年齡作為區隔,界定單獨同意/輔助同意/代理同意的界線,亦規範有未成年人不得接受的醫療措施。醫事法係我國近年來進步甚快的法領域,個別醫事法規均分別經歷多次修法歷程,本文也將分析目前我國法在未成年醫療決定規範上之疑義與可能進步的方向。

英文摘要

The mental maturity of minors changes with age. Whether minors can consent on their own or require joint consents or surrogate consents from their parents or guardians prior to undergoing medical procedures; and whether relevant regulations should vary according to the medical plans to be adopted for the minors are crucial topics to be addressed to protect the autonomy of minors. This study discussed and analyzed regulations related to minors?informed consents in Taiwan medical laws. Generally, the full capacity for consents and the requirements for joint consents and surrogate consents are separated by age. Medical laws in Taiwan have evolved at a rapid pace, and individual acts in these laws have underwent multiple amendments. This study also analyzed the problems underlying existing regulations governing minors?informed consents in Taiwan as well as offered suggestions for improvement.
