Hello... friend..❤️❤️
SUMMARY
This essay primarily discusses voluntary active euthanasia (VAE); the administration of drugs with the explicit intention to end life at the explicit request of a patient6 and physician assisted suicide (PAS); a variant of VAE where final act of administration of lethal drug is performed by patient and physician merely prescribes or supplies the lethal drug. Euthanasia is discussed with special reference to English Law.
Key words: Euthanasia; English Law; Voluntary active euthanasia; Physician assisted suicide; Manslaughter; Assisted suicide; Palliative care; Withdrawal of treatment; Autonomy; Beneficenc
Citation: Ahmed I. Euthanasia: protecting ‘right to die’ by denying ‘right to live’. Anaesth Pain & Intensive Care 2012;16(3):305-310
INTRODUCTION
Although in Netherland, under Common Law, active euthanasia was decriminalised in 1984, it took almost two decades before it was formally legalised following Euthanasia Act 2002. In the mean time, euthanasia in the form of medically assisted suicide became legal in Luxemburg, Belgium and Switzerland. However, despite extensive debate, changing public opinion and highly publicised legal cases, it remained illegal in many other developed and developing countries of the world. The very notion that ‘we do not in any circumstances allow the deliberate taking of life’ has survived a century of change1 in philosophical and social attitude towards euthanasia.
hope its help u my friend ❤️

•Here is your answer...,,,
•The word euthanasia, originated in Greece means a good death. Euthanasia encompasses various dimensions, from active (introducing something to cause death) to passive (withholding treatment or supportive measures); voluntary (consent) to involuntary (consent from guardian) and physician assisted (where physician's prescribe the medicine and patient or the third party administers the medication to cause death).
• Request for premature ending of life has contributed to the debate about the role of such practices in contemporary health care. This debate cuts across complex and dynamic aspects such as, legal, ethical, human rights, health, religious, economic, spiritual, social and cultural aspects of the civilised society. Here we argue this complex issue from both the supporters and opponents’ perspectives, and also attempts to present the plight of the sufferers and their caregivers.
•The objective is to discuss the subject of euthanasia from the medical and human rights perspective given the background of the recent Supreme Court judgement3 in this context.
