[The new penal code and the psychiatrist].
The new criminal law taking effect from the first of march 1994 contains many changes. Some of them will have important result for the psychiatric practice: it is the case of the new writing of criminal defense for mental insanity, specially in its second part, and also about the new 226.13 & 14 articles on medical confidentiality. The new infraction of endangering someone by deliberate breach of a rule could have serious consequences too. Other changes are of less impact but are worth knowing.
