ABSTRACT

El progreso de la ciencia médica y sus efectos sobre el ser humano encuentran en la muerte un límite ético a sus posibilidades. El progreso médico, en ocasiones, se opone a los derechos de los pacientes, apareciendo la eutanasia como uno de sus principales conflictos. La discusión bioética debe resolver el dilema sobre permitir o no la muerte de todo paciente terminal que así lo desee. Algunas legislaciones han permitido la eutanasia, basadas en la autonomía del paciente, cuando aparecen situaciones que no permiten una buena calidad de vida en pacientes que padecen enfermedades terminales. El propósito de este artículo es realizar un análisis acerca de la eutanasia con el objetivo de clarificar los conceptos, sus aspectos bioéticos y realizar un análisis del proyecto de ley que pretende aprobar la eutanasia en Chile, encontrándose en dicho proyecto muchas contradicciones dentro del mismo y en relación con la legislación chilena en general.
