Podstawowe prawa pacjenta w orzeczeniach sądów lekarskich. Stan obecny i wyzwania na przyszłość
Basic Rights of the Patient in Medical Court Decisions. Current Status and Challenges for the Future

Summary/Abstract: Documents related to human rights indicate that respect for life and health is inherent in the medical profession. The doctor’s conduct is aimed at saving the patient’s life or health. At the same time, it is important that the patient’s dignity is not violated and his statutory rights are respected. In her work, the author would like to present her research on medical court rulings conducted in one of the largest medical courts in Poland, providing not only statistics but also numerous examples of authentic judgments. Unfortunately, the examples presented by the author show that modern medicine loses its deepest meaning, which is the good of the patient. Hence the postulate that the educational value resulting from the decisions of medical courts be used in the process of teaching doctors.
