Abstract/OtherAbstract:
With the new law of living will which came into force on September 1 (st) 2009 the legislator has ended a long-lasting discussion about the erection, the range and the putting into action of living wills. This essay describes the new regulations in the German Civil Code (BGB) and discusses which aspects need to be taken into consideration at the treatment of patients being (un)able to consent to a medical measure.
