영문 초록

Law and ethics in medicine face the same questions but respond them differently sometimes. This is also the case for the central question of self-determination or patient autonomy at the end of life: Patient autonomy in a ambitious sense is not restricted in the free volition, but requires the optimal support for a reflected individual decision. In the light of the protection of life and individual freedom, the current legal approach of the Patient Decree and implementation of representatives is imperfect. It therefore requires the further development to a structured process of the advance care planning.
