Limitations on End-of-Life Decisionmaking and French Law

法国2005年的《病人权利与临终法》考察了以下两个问题：首先，2005年的立法者要努力解决那些无论是否处于最后阶段，都无法表达其意愿的无能力病人的严重案例；其次，他们试图将2002年《病人权利法》确立的病人自主原则尽可能广泛地应用于临终关怀。由此产生了患者预先指示和医生团队共同决策两种制度。虽然2005年的法律刚刚能够达到这两种制度，但从我们的法律比较研究中可以得到一些建议。

The Patient's Rights and End-of-Life Law of French in 2005 examined the following two problems : First, the legislators of 2005 wrestled with the serious cases of the incompetent patient, whether in the last stage or not, who cannot express his intention, and secondly they tried to apply the patient autonomy principle, which the Patient's Rights Law of 2002 have established, as extensively as possible to terminal care. Thus the two systems of patient's Advanced Directives and doctor team's Collegial decision making were made by this law. Although the law of 2005 was just able to reach the two systems, there may be a suggestion from our comparative study of law.
