Fundamental questions of clinical ethics with focus on quality and quantity of life
STRÁSKÝ, Marek
This work focuses on basic issues of clinical ethics. These questions mainly concern bioethical principles and the contradictions between them, which are the main topics discussed in the first part. It also discusses the factors that must be taken into account in cases of clinical ethics in order to achieve the stated goal of medical care. In the second part, this work combines knowledge and relevant areas of clinical ethics with social work. Above all, it focuses on two areas of social work: work with elderly and palliative care, in which this connection is most clear. This section also touches on topics of euthanasia, dystanasia, and assisted suicide, which are some of the most discussed topics in clinical ethics. In the third part, this work discusses one of the most significant and current contradictions: the question of balancing the quality and quantity of life, in cases where these two areas contradict each other. Following this, it analyzes the dimensions of quality of life, methods of measuring quality of life and their practical use.

This work focuses mainly on clinical practice, on the relationship between a doctor (or more generally a healthcare professional) and a patient. The institute of informed consent has evolved similarly in medical ethics as well as in the medical law, but there are some significant differences. One of the basic issues of this work is to distinguish both positions and point out differences between legal and ethical aspects of this institute. The thesis sees the fundamental differences in the different purposes of both two key normative systems, in their function, in the values they represented and in the principles they emphasized. While trust and mutuality are essential to informed consent in ethics, the legal institute reflects more the protection of the subjects, especially the protection against abuse, thus providing legal certainty especially for the patient. The ethical level is primarily to ensure respect for the other person so that he or she is...

This work will be focused on the region Mladá Boleslav and the projects Světluška and Píšťalka. The work will be divided into two sections -- theoretical and practical. The theoretical section will contain the questions of the beneficence and two concrete projects, the whole position of the Czech Republic to the beneficence. The practical section will use the question-form method oriented to the secondary-school students. The practical output of this work will be the project - the subject: Ethical Culture at the chosen secondary school.
