A 56-year-old patient with kidney failure in Gansu Province was treated in the hospital for a while, but the hospital advised him to give up the treatment and go home for the last stage of his life.
Serious consequences of kidney failure patients, basically no solution, short survival time, completely spend money to hang their lives. After the family discussed, the patient was taken home and put on a ventilator for 6 hours.
The family decided that it was better to extubate than to let the patient live in pain. When the patient's opinion is sought, the patient writes on a piece of paper: "Don't extubate, I want to live!"
The family was eventually extubated, and the patient died ten minutes later. After the incident, the police intervened, and the relevant personnel may be held criminally responsible.
According to the lawyer, abandonment of treatment and active extubation are two different concepts.
Abandonment of treatment is not legally responsible, but is morally condemnable;
Active extubation is a subjective crime, and the act of extubation is objectively committed, and criminal responsibility must be committed.
