This is regarding the Munoz Case:
|
Do you think the hospital acted correctly by keeping Marlise Munoz on life support? Why or why not? Would your answer change if the fetus was 25 weeks old (generally considered viable)? Why or why not? |
Homework Answers
Yes, the hospital was acted wisely. Even if, Marlise Munoz has made an advance directive to avoid any life saving measures in case of brain death; in her case it was not applicable. Because, the Texas law prohibits the removal of life saving measures from pregnant patients.
No, my answer would not have been changed If the fetus was 25 weeks old or more. In that case, the fetus would have been saved by means of Cesarean Section in favorable condition.
Thank you
