Passive euthanasia occurs when a terminally ill patient's life-saving therapy is stopped or withheld, allowing the patient to pass away naturally.

Earlier, Sir Francis Bacon described the concept of passive euthanasia in the 17th century. It comes from the Greek terms "EU" and "Thanatos," which denote good and death, respectively. Originally, it meant a "good" or "easy" death, though.

Passive euthanasia refers to the intentional removal of artificial life support, such as a ventilator or feeding tube. Some ethicists distinguish between stopping life support and withdrawing it (the patient is on life support but then removed from it).
