摘要

在不到20年的时间里，美国有5个州将医生协助自杀(PAS)合法化或非刑事化，2015年，大约一半的州立法机构考虑将其合法化。由于执行PAS的通常是医生，因此了解医生对其合法化和执行意愿的看法非常重要。本研究的目的是确定医生对医生协助自杀合法化和实践的看法。一份22道选择题的调查问卷发给了耶鲁医学院1251名在职医师。488人(39%)回应。大多数答复的医生(73%)同意有时为了减轻痛苦而加速死亡是必要的。在这73%的人中，只有29%的人表示他们会在医生的协助下自杀。

Academic Physician Perspectives on the Legalization and Practice of Physician-Assisted Suicide.

In fewer than 20 years, five US states have legalized or decriminalized physician-assisted suicide (PAS), and in 2015, about half of all state legislatures considered legalizing it. Since it is medical doctors who typically perform PAS, it is important to understand physicians' views regarding legalization and willingness to perform it. The objective of this study was to determine what physicians believe about the legalization and practice of physician-assisted suicide. A 22 multiple-choice question survey was sent to 1251 current faculty physicians at the Yale School of Medicine. Four hundred and eighty-eight (39%) responded. The majority of physician respondents (73%) agreed that it is sometimes necessary to hasten death in order to relieve suffering. Of that 73%, only 29% indicated that they would actually perform physician-assisted suicide.

期刊介绍： The Connecticut State Medical Society (CSMS) is a federation of eight component county medical associations, with a total membership exceeding 7,000 physicians. CSMS itself is a constituent state entity of the American Medical Association. Founded by the physician-patriots of the American Revolution, the Society operates from a heritage of democratic principles embodied in its Charter and Bylaws. The base of all authority in CSMS is, of course, the individual physician member. It is the decisions of members in their own county associations that ultimately determine the nature of the Society"s policies and activities.
