Abstract:
A variety of views and approaches were found in the appraisal and judgments of the people's courts in various provinces and cities,on medical disputes involving absence of a hand or foot of newborns,which result in different or event contradictory court decisions.This study made an analysis of the characteristics,nature,and classification of such cases as well as countermeasures of medical institutions,with recommendations on rational and appropriate handling of such cases,for the purposes of legitimate rights maintenance of both doctors and patients,and promotion of mutual understanding between the two parities,and establishment of a harmonious doctor-patient relationship.
