Types of Euthanasia

– Vera Chung Video includes the definitions of and examples of: Voluntary/Non Voluntary Euthanasia Active/Passive Euthanasia Assisted Suicide What is not mentioned in the video is the difference between Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide: One way to distinguish them is to look at the last act – the act without which death would not occur. If a third party performs the last act that intentionally causes a patient’s death, euthanasia has occurred. eg giving a patient a lethal injection or putting a plastic bag over her head to suffocate her If the person who dies performs the last act, assisted suicide has taken place. eg if a person swallows an overdose of drugs that has been provided by a doctor for the purpose of causing death. It would also be assisted suicide if a patient pushes a switch to trigger a fatal injection after the doctor has inserted an intravenous needle into the patient’s vein.

Autodesk Showcase visualization software enables you to create accurate, highly realistic imagery from 3D CAD data. When coupled with the Autodesk Moldflow 2011 software, you can significantly enhance design reviews and quality assessments of plastic parts by examining a photorealistic rendering of the manufactured digital prototype. This interoperability lets you see how the part might actually look in real life and determine whether the defects are visible to the eye, enabling you to assess part quality and decide whether the design needs to be changed to avoid downstream manufacturing defects.
