【摘要】 通过对"缓和医疗"和"安乐死"两个概念的梳理、辨析,明确两者的定义,从目的、对象、手段、道德义务和利益攸关方态度等五个方面对两者进行比较,指出两者不存在包含关系,尽管两者在理论上存在交叉和协同关系,但在中国语境下不应强调这两类关系。建议将缓和医疗与安乐死视作两个独立的概念,明确两者不存在包含关系,不强调他们存在交叉和协同关系,并建议弃用"消极安乐死"这一概念,弃用"姑息"一词,以消除误解并推动缓和医疗的发展。更多还原

【Abstract】 This paper clarifies the definition and combs the relationship between palliative care and euthanasia. They are compared in terms of target, subject, approach, moral obligation and attitudes of interested party. Although they are intersective and synergetic theoretically, the relationship should not be stressed in the Chinese context. It suggests that in academic and public discussions, palliative care and euthanasia should be regarded as two separate concepts, focusing on their inclusive relationship, rather than intersective and synergetic. It suggests that "passive euthanasia" and "Gu Xi" should be abandoned, to clear up misunderstandings on euthanasia, and promote the development of palliative care.更多还原
