Abstract

The present study primarily sets forth the guidelines of the historical and conceptual context that fits this legal and care reality, designated by the Spanish legislation with different names: advance directive, living will. After a brief review of this legislation, I offer an introductory examination of various aspects of its legal regulation, as well as other related problems: the grantor and his capacity, the content of the document with a reflection on the figure of the health representative, and issues according to the effectiveness and limits of the document. Finally, it also includes observations about its value and impact in the context of the so-called advanced care planning at the end of life.
