术前谈话与患者的知情同意权

告知说明义务是医师的法定义务,知情同意权是患者的法定权利,术前谈话是外科医师履行告知说明义务和手术患者实现知情同意权的共同方式。外科医师应深入理解患者的知情同意权,合理履行告知说明义务,临床实践中做到告知说明内容充分,变更手术重新告知说明,避免使用穷尽式列举,确定签字人身份合法且具有完全民事行为能力。     

术前谈话与患者的知情同意权

告知说明义务是医师的法定义务,知情同意权是患者的法定权利,术前谈话是外科医师履行告知说明义务和手术患者实现知情同意权的共同方式.外科医师应深入理解患者的知情同意权,合理履行告知说明义务,临床实践中做到告知说明内容充分,变更手术重新告知说明,避免使用穷尽式列举,确定签字人身份合法且具有完全民事行为能力.     

论医师说明义务的法律性质

厘清医师说明义务的内涵、性质能够使患者和医师明晰自己的权利和义务,有利于保护患者知情同意权.对于医师说明义务的法律性质,有主张医师的说明系患者有效同意之逻辑前提的“承诺无效说”;也有“医疗合同上的附随义务”的观点;还有认为其应是一项法定的注意义务.在对这些观点进行评析后提出此义务应是一项法定的合同义务.     

医师履行告知义务的判定标准

当前中国医患矛盾频发,其原因之一在于医患间信息不对称所造成的信任缺失,因此医师告知义务被规定为医疗过程中的法定义务,成为判定医疗行为是否侵权的要件之一,医师是否履行告知义务的判定标准亟待确立.综合各派学说,合理医师与询问告知(明示的具体患者)标准更具操作性,有利于医患双向沟通的实现.     

医生告知义务的类型与范围——来自德国的启示

根据医生告知义务的内容和保护目的的不同,告知义务可以被区分为针对自决权的告知、针对治疗的告知和针对治疗费用的告知,违反不同类型告知义务的法律后果也应当不同。《侵权责任法》第五十五条混合规定了两种不同类型的告知义务,导致医生的责任范围可能被不当扩大。针对治疗的告知义务普遍存在于诊疗规范的要求当中,应当予以补充规定。《侵权责任法》第五十五条还应当进一步明确应当向患者告知的医疗风险和替代医疗方案等情况的范围界限。     

认知心理学视角下的医师告知义务探析

Ellis的ABC理论和Schachter的情绪认知理论及试验说明,个体的认知信念影响情绪和行为反应.也就是说,患者对疾病事件的认知评价直接影响着情绪和行为表现.因此,在认知心理学相关理论指导下,医师对患者履行告知义务时必须遵循准确性原则、个性化原则及艺术性原则等,让患者对疾病事件有充分的知情与信息掌握,帮助患者改变观察问题的角度,正确认知与评价疾病事件,进而以积极、健康的情绪和行为表现来配合医务人员的诊治.     

中美医疗告知义务比较研究

《侵权责任法》第五十五条界定了医疗告知义务的内容和形式,以此保护患者知情同意权。然而,告知义务不仅限于该规定的内容,还包括转诊告知、治愈率告知等义务。在美国,医师与患者利益冲突也是告知义务的内容。对比中国大陆、台湾地区和美国的法律、案例,发现美国的医疗告知义务更侧重对患者知情同意权的保护,而中国大陆和台湾地区则侧重告知义务的履行形式。对告知义务的违反意味着对患者知情同意权的侵犯。在美国对侵犯知情同意权的责任形态区分故意和过失,而在中国大陆,通常不作区分,一般只认定为有过错。     

论我国活体器官移植捐献人知情同意权的保障

由于活体器官捐献行为的利他性与无偿性,我国医事法律应严格规范活体器官移植捐献人的知情同意权,以保障其生命健康权。在医师告知义务方面,应采纳理性医师和具体患者标准的折衷说,并明确医师具体的告知范围。在患者同意权的表达方面,应以有无识别能力作为患者同意能力的判断标准,规范知情同意书,并增设医学托辞制度。此外,捐献人应享有知情同意的任意撤销权,但承担接受人基于信赖利益保护而产生的损害责任。     

论保密义务与诚信原则

尊重患者隐私,保守执业秘密,是医师的道德义务,也是法律义务,保密义务的理论基础在于诚实信用原则.为此,医疗活动中应引入体现伦理道德要求的诚信理念,从道德和法律两方面规范医师的行为,并且建立以法律规范为主的规制模式.     

医师不得拒绝诊疗的法律与伦理问题研究

医患纠纷频繁发生和医患关系不和谐已成为社会热点问题。首先对我国现行医师不得拒绝诊疗的相关法律规定进行概述,并分析了明确医师不得拒绝诊疗义务的法律与伦理上的原因,指出了医师不得拒绝诊疗相关法律规定的不足之处,最后对完善相关法律规定及现实操作进行思考。以达到改善医患关系,减少医疗纠纷的目的。     

Hide-and-seek or show-and-tell? Emerging issues of informed consent

This article reviews key philosophical and legal underpinnings of mental health professionals' obligation to obtain informed consent from consumers of their services. The basic components of informed consent are described, and strategies for clinically and ethically appropriate methods of obtaining informed consent are discussed. Emerging issues in informed consent involving duty to assess and protect against client dangerousness, obligations to third parties, and issues of deception are considered as well. The article proposes that part of the process of obtaining informed consent is the cultivation of a treatment environment that emphasizes beneficence and client autonomy.

论艾滋病人及艾滋病毒感染者权利与义务的平衡

《艾滋病防治条例》,对于艾滋病病毒感染者和艾滋病人的权利和义务进行了精巧的设计。本着保护人权和预防疾病的需要,对艾滋病病毒感染者和艾滋病人在医疗活动、人身权益和社会经济各方面的权利与义务都进行了很好的平衡。     

Informed Consent and the Requirement to Ensure Understanding

It is generally held that doctors and researchers have an obligation to obtain informed consent. Over time there has been a move in relation to this obligation from a requirement to disclose information to a requirement to ensure that that information is understood. Whilst this change has been resisted, in this article I argue that both sides on this matter are mistaken. When investigating what information is needed for consent to be informed we might be trying to determine what information a person would need in order to consent at all, or we might be trying to determine what information a person needs in order to make an informed choice about whether or not to consent. I argue that the obligation to ensure understanding only applies to information generated by the first type of enquiry; but that much of the information generally thought necessary in order for consent to be informed is only required if our concern is with the second type of enquiry. For this reason it is neither the case that doctors and researchers should ensure all the information they provide is understood, nor is it the case that their only obligation is to disclose it.     

对知情同意书和知情同意过程的探讨

在《医疗事故处理条例》实施中,存在着一种现象:重视一张由患者签字的知情同意书,轻待知情同意过程。签字的知情同意书不等于知情同意,知情同意书不等于“生死契约”。知情同意的本义:对患者权利、尊严、人格和自由的尊重,只有在知情同意过程中获得。因此知情同意过程应该重要于知情同意书。医生严格履行好法定的告知和说明义务,尊重患者的知情同意权,就是尊重法律,也是医生保护自己的最好方式。     

知情同意在我国临床医疗中的实施

知情同意在我国至少已倡导与实践了20年,由伦理要求上升到法律准则无疑是一个跨越式的进步。当前,医院落实知情同意的实践滞后于患者要求,除了主观方面的原因外,客观上存在知情同意与保护性医疗,病人自主权与医生处置权、医学对疾病的已知与未知等诸多盾与难点。要使知情同意在我国临床医疗中真正落实尚有许多工作要做;提高医务人员尊重病人权利的意识;完善执行知情同意的方式与程序;细化与知情同意的实施原则;营造良好的社会氛围,探索非西方环境下知情同意实现途径。     

从辅助生殖技术的个案析要论知情同意的完善

结合在人类辅助生殖技术服务过程中发生的案例进行分析,就如何完善知情同意提出了一些见解。认为,医疗技术服务中,知情同意的完善必须注重两个环节,知情同意过程和签署知情同意书。这两个环节必须根据具体情况来进行实施,绝不能敷衍走过场。因此,相关医生对知情同意的认识和伦理监督就显得尤为重要。     

知情同意：从纽伦堡到赫尔辛基

知情同意被视为临床伦理学与研究伦理学的基本原则。大量的文献倡导提高同意的必要条件。据说,同意应当更加明确、具体。经验主义的证据显示,满足任何一方标准是极其困难的,有时是不可能的,因此,这些目标很难行得通。倡导知情同意不实际与不可能的要求,有极小的价值。讨论告知不能作为临床伦理学与研究伦理学的基本标准,知情同意可以最好视为病人与受试者以及其他人所能选择性放弃其他的义务,而不采取侵害性行为的一种方法。它提供了一种调节根本的义务的重要方式,这一义务是由尊重真正执行同意所需要的伦理标准与认识力的双方提供。     

“拔牙要签同意书案”的知情同意探究

让患者知情同意义务是近些年来在医疗诉讼过程中逐步从一般注意义务中分化出来的特殊注意义务。但如何确定患者知情同意,如何界定医生行使告知义务时的信息披露程度,一直没有一个确定的标准,在法律、医患沟通、医疗保险制度等方面还有许多要完善的地方。     

Black Boxing Restraints: The Need for Full Disclosure and Consent

In this article we discuss the necessity of fully informing patients and their families of what constitutes physical interventions and their attendant risks under the established principles and obligations of informed consent. After a brief review of the elements of informed consent and the nature of the duty to advise patients and their families of treatment risks, we argue that physical interventions are an unvalidated treatment for aggressive and violent behavior and should be used only as a safety intervention. We focus our discussion on the informed consent issues for school aged children, adolescents, and emancipated minors and contend that if restraints are used they must pose less risk than the behavior they are trying to alleviate. We also opine that if restraints are misused by mental health or child welfare treatment settings, then their misuse may be considered a subject of a patient maltreatment, abuse, criminal or civil action. A central thesis of the article is that informed consent must be seen as an integral and dynamic process of treatment. We recommend strategies that gain parental permission and child assent, that view informed consent as a dynamic and individualized process that aids and supports the therapeutic relationship, and that stress the importance of simplicity and clarity.
