Overview
This article is focused on the institution of advance directives of patients as a part of the Czech legal system. It deals with the scientific notion of disease and its consequences for the solutions of some issues emerging in relation to this tool. The pattern of disease in natural sciences is also common in biomedicine – applied human biology. The consequences resulting from this approach are also reflected in the solutions of some important problems. That is predominantly the issue of the biomedicine consulting in connection with advance directives of patients. The significance of the most possible patient’s addressee concretization and the extent of biomedicine consulting are pursued, i.e. what the patient should know about his/her disease from the biomedical point of view. The scientific point of view reflects the requirement for the most accurate wording of the patient’s declaration and the requirement for fidelity of his/her interpretation.
Key words:
Advance directives, disease, interpretation of the text.
