女患者指控莊姓婦產科醫師於超音波檢查時未戴手套觸摸私密處,檢方依利用醫療機會猥褻罪起訴。

Font size

彰化一名莊姓婦產科醫師遭女患者控訴,超音波檢查時趁護理師轉身之際,未戴手套觸摸私密處逾30秒,檢方依利用醫療機會猥褻罪起訴,一審認證據不足判無罪,案件上訴台中高分院後近日仍駁回上訴,維持無罪判決,全案尚未確定。

而一審法官雖判莊男無罪,卻罕見在判決書末留下「勸世語」,強調良好醫病關係建立在互信與溝通,醫師進行觸診,尤其未戴手套時,應事先充分說明,以同理心降低醫病間資訊不對等,避免因溝通不足產生醫療誤會,期盼醫師能引以為戒。

該案源於一名女患者到彰化某醫院婦產科就診,指控接受超音波檢查時,莊姓醫師趁跟診護理師轉身操作電腦,伸手觸碰其外陰部約30多秒,事後越想越不舒服,離開診間後向護理師反映並報警提告,檢方調查後將莊男起訴。

彰化地院審理時莊男否認猥褻,護理師也證稱,進行超音波前置作業時,曾請患者將內褲褪至陰部以上、陰阜以下,並以反摺紙巾夾住內褲褲頭,避免沾染凝膠,法官認為,若要直接觸碰外陰部,勢必得將手伸進紙巾及內褲遮蔽範圍,且患者當時始終平躺,並未被要求張腿或改變姿勢,從客觀情況看,莊男實難穿過遮蔽物觸及私密部位。

另考量診間空間狹小,護理師當時僅離病床約3、4步,莊男若在隨時可能遭目擊的情況下做出猥褻行為,與一般情理有所不合判決無罪,案件上訴台中高分院後,合議庭認原審認事用法並無違誤,近日駁回上訴,維持莊男無罪判決,全案尚未確定。
