脑死亡的立法问题

Legal Issues of Cerebral Death

从民事权利能力终止、生命维持器械使用与器官移植需求、保护患者权利及促进医疗技术发展等因素考虑,我国亟需对脑死亡进行立法。此立法应采全脑死与全脑死加心脏死两种标准并由当事人生前选择。脑死亡立法的价值取向,应确立保护确认脑死对象的生命权、促进器官移植、保护器官捐献者的自己决定权及坚持器官无偿捐献原则。

To set forth the reasons of cerebral death legislation, this article involves the end of capacity for private rights, the use of appliance to maintain lives, the need to transplant apparatus, the protection of sufferers'rights and the promotion of medical technology. And then it demonstrates that we should adopt the dual standard, which authorizes the individual to choose before death between the standard of cerebral death and the standard of cerebral death plus cordiac death. Protecting the life right of the sufferer whose brain life is affirmed, promoting apparatus transplant, protecting apparatus subscribers'self-determining right and the principle of apparatus'volunteer subscription are what our legislation should stick to.
