Abstract
Is such a thing possible that we respects the subjectivity of the patient in persistent vegetative state? I analyzed the reports among 233 nursing students after debate and appreciating VTR about the care of the patients in persistent vegetative state. About 60% of them are agreed that will should be respective above the other. But they had felt that the patients wished the death with dignity. On the other hand, abort 40% students are agreed that life should be valued above the other, but they wished the death with dignity"If I had been in persistent vegetative state."These result suggest that almost students agreed to respect the will and life of the patient in persistent vegetative state, but potentially they valued the person with self-conscious and self-determining.
