Thesis (J.S.D.)--Stanford University, 1993.
This thesis is concerned with the legal issues that arise in withholding and withdrawing life support. The focus is on Canadian law, but consideration is also given to the law in the United States and the United Kingdom. The author analyzes the situations of both decisionally capable and decisionally incapable patients at common law, and considers changes that might result with the advent of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Factors to guide decision-making when the patient is competent and when he or she is not are proposed. The criminal law implications of ending life support are also taken into account and the likelihood of criminal liability being imposed and on what basis is assessed. The author argues that much current reasoning about criminal liability is not defensible and urges that criminal sanctions be re-examined. With respect to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the author concludes that where the Charter applies--that is, where there is "government action"--then a patient's right to refuse even life-sustaining treatment would be constitutionally protected. However, it is neither logical nor wise to attempt to extend such an analysis to decisionally incapable patients where there is no reliable indication of what the patient's wishes would have been with respect to the use of life support or continued life under the circumstances that now prevail.Subjects--Topical Terms:
