[Values anamnesis: a narrative approach to determining and interpreting advance directives].
Quite a number of conceptual, clinical, ethical and legal arguments have been made to agree in favour of advance directives for medical treatment and care. But not many patients execute advance directives and physicians and nurses are quite reluctant to accept advance medical directives as authoritative guidance for clinical decision making in cases of dementia, terminal illness or in the case of the dying.
