Problematics of dystanazia
Javornický, Michal ; Halama, Jindřich (advisor) ; Milfait, René (referee)
Synopsis My work describes the consequensces and the problems of dystanasia (overtreatement). Dystanasia means keeping man alive at all costs. It doesn't respect boards, where currative care doesn't bring profit to man. It doesn't respect the finallity of human life. It just keep's the human body on technical equipement and the body will not survive without these technics and will be dead. With this theme incorporates the question of life and death. It is death, which is blocked in dystanasia. When we define death, we must begin with the definition of life. My work also describes euthanasia: it is sometimes described as opposition to dystanasia. In this view, dystanasia is treatement, which prolongs death. And then euthanasia doesn't prolong death but shortens the proces of dying. Solving these problems is complicated. To change the thinking of humanity to accept inevitable death is an impossible task. Maybe the way is to give space for communication between pastoral care, medicine and paliative medicine. To set up tasks and the method of cooperating is the goal of my work. Key words: Life, death, euthanasia, dystanasia, pain, suffering, vain treatement, pastoral care, paliative medicine
