Euthanasia: A Fatal Decision

The white lightning flashes whitishly, peeping from the gray hair, and staring at the dark eyes. A crazy scientist cried to his assistant and paced the body without his life on the table; his creation. When a jerky chain lifted the body from a roofless laboratory, the evil laughter of a scientist resounded in the night sky. This scene is often played in old movies, capturing the fear of unlimited medical research. When a sick person decides the time of their death, they actually play God by deciding when to finish in order to control human life.

Medically, this practice is divided into two types - active euthanasia and passive euthanasia. The former includes medical professionals who use fatal substances or lethal medical means to prolong the patient's lifespan. Because this positive euthanasia shape is contrary to the doctor's pledge to save lives, it caused the most intense protest. Tang Si's personal move (generally known as A Stupid) who ended his life with the help of suicide revealed this difference in idea. Since the outbreak of sports accidents more than 10 years ago, Mr. Tang, who has relied on most of the basic needs of other people, wrote a letter requesting former CEO Tung Chee-hwa in 2003 to legalize euthanasia It was.

In contrast, it focuses on active voluntary euthanasia. This form of euthanasia is often called "euthanasia". This is because people applying lethal treatment are motivated by the desire to alleviate the pain of the patient and satisfy the patient's last, perhaps most personal, desire. Therefore, this review uses spontaneous voluntary euthanasia and the term "euthanasia" as synonyms. For unwilling euthanasia, active / passive distinction is important to assess criminal liability of perpetrators. Inevitable euthanasia refers to robbing someone's life contrary to one's intention or without explicit consent, so both active and passive constitute a homicide. 18 years

Two other terms are sometimes used - active and passive euthanasia, the difference they pursue is confusion and most avoided. Active euthanasia is defined as direct death due to intentional fatal behavior, usually deadly injection. But this is another way to explain euthanasia. This excessive passive euthanasia is often used to explain detention or discontinuation of life support therapy from a terminal patient. Such omissions are expected to allow that person to die naturally. In addition to prolonging human death, the use of this term indicates that abandonment of treatment, which may or may not be therapeutic, is a form of euthanasia (euthanasia). However, in this case, it is not a behavior or fault that leads to patient's death, but a fundamental disease process.
