THE RIGHT OF THE DONOR/RECIPENT TO INFORMATION IN THE CASE OF TRANSFER AND TRANSPLANT OF ORGANS, TISSUES AND HUMAN CELLS FOR THERAPEUTIC PURPOSES
Journal Title: Challenges of the knowledge society ( Provocari ale societatii cunoasterii ) - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 12
Abstract
The current study starts from the fact that, in the contemporary society, the patient can no longer be considered a simple consumer of services totally subordinated to the doctor, but he is an active participant in the performance of the medical act, having a series of rights, among which his right to information. This right completes the right to life and to health, his right to physical and psychical integrity, the right to dispose of oneself and the right over his own body. Knowing, accepting and bearing the consequences of his own (in) actions are important aspects for each individual, more valuable for the person subjected as donor or recipient of a transplant of organs, tissues or human cells for therapeutic purposes, given the implications of such a procedure. This is why a decision concerning the human body and health of an individual can be taken only after serious, real and intelligible information regarding the risks and benefits of the intervention to which that individual shall be subjected to.
