摘要
医疗损害是因医疗行为对患方造成损害的一种法律事实。它不仅包括对患者生命健康权的侵害,而且还包括因医疗过失行为引起的一切不利的事实和后果。对医疗损害的内涵和外延应当依据侵权法上损害事实理论进行认定,但要注意识别医疗损害与医疗事故之间的联系与区别。只有在理论层面上全面了解医疗损害的适用范围,才能切实保障医患双方的合法权益,公正合理地裁决医疗纠纷,才能构建和谐的医患关系。
Medical injury refers to a legal fact that the medical treatment causes damages to the patient, not being limited to the rights of life and health, but including any adverse consequence caused by medical negligence. The connotation and extension of medical injury should be determined by injury facts theory in torts law, considering the relationship between medical injury and medical accident. It is based on the theoretical analysis of the application scope of medical injury that the legitimate rights and interests of doctors and patients can be virtually protected so as to impartially settle disputes over medical treatment and to establish harmonious relation between doctors and patients.
