Extract

A new law about the advance directives (AD) has been recently voted in France on February 2, 2016. This " Claeys-Leonetti " law has made the AD more binding, as in other countries. This should lead to a greater respect of the human autonomy principle. However, the interpretation of these guidelines is often difficult and may differ between doctors. Indeed, the subjectivity of these interpretations could lead to different medical decisions by physicians. The investigators intend to assess the effect of advance directives (AD) on decision making in care by intensivists, using a simulated (hypothetical) situation.
