PEREIRA PEREZ, Joanna. BIOETHICS PERSPECTIVE ABOUT THE CAPACITY AND AUTONOMY OF ALZHEIMER'S PATIENTS. rev.latinoam.bioet. [online]. 2011, vol.11, n.2, pp.86-97. ISSN 1657-4702.
The analysis of the conditions, that should characterized the autonomy of an Alzheimer's patient in mild stages of the disease, should be made through the transdiciplinarity imposed to this subject by the bioethics perspective, in the cases that this autonomy is exercised in anticipation of its own and future inability to protect their person and properties. The autonomy has a thigh relation with their freedom, the particularities of this disease, people's capacities and its necessary link with the competence. This way bioethics is the necessary bridge between Alzheimer's disease and the valid autonomy exercise of this patient's autonomy.
