CARNEIRO, António H.; CARNEIRO, Rui y SIMOES, Catarina. "Death that Occurs by Decision of the Person Himself": Critical Reflection on the Terms and Concepts of Decree No. 199/XIV of the Assembleia da República. Medicina Interna [online]. 2022, vol.29, n.1, pp.55-60. Epub 01-Abr-2022. ISSN 0872-671X. https://doi.org/10.24950/rspmi.2022.01.amhc.
The authors discuss terms and concepts included in the "definitions" of Decreto nº. 199/XIV of the National Portuguese Assembly Republic, considering that the expression "medically assisted death" is equivocal and incorrect. They argue that the determining criterion of "death by the will of the person himself" in the context of this diploma is intolerable suffering and not the diagnosed disease.
