UK court rules 19-year-old patient unable to make healthcare decisions due to her stance on medical advice.
A UK court ruled that a 19-year-old patient, Sudiksha Thirumalesh, lacked decision-making capacity due to her inability to appropriately use medical information about her rare condition, despite understanding it.
The decision sparked debate on whether disbelief in medical advice can impact a patient's capacity to make healthcare decisions.
