( Pp. 134-141)

Nobody is safe from medical error in the modern world. It is difficult to identify the elusive distinction between negligent attitude and justified medical risk as well. In some cases, however, when it comes to protecting the interests of a special category of women in the medical field - pregnant and ones giving birth, every effort must be made to create all the necessary conditions to ensure that there is no negligence on the part of medical personnel that could entail serious consequences. Particular issues of the analysis of liability for negligence regarding pregnant women and women giving birth are relevant to the theory and practice of criminal law. This reason is conditioned by the need of their in-depth study so as to improve Russian criminal legislation and to extend the practical application of the criminal law norm specified in the Article 293 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation as well as to implement its preventive potential. Research methodology: An in-depth study of the main categories and concepts used to accurately and correctly determine the constructive signs of the investigated criminal encroachment is done by dialectical, comparative, technical and logical methods. Summary: The article reveals the provisions on the specifics of the qualification of actions of a medical worker that constitute a breach of good faith or negligence in the performance of his or her official duties. Conducted constructive analysis of criminal legislation, a synthesis of the views of individual scientists-lawyers are allowed to form a holistic view of the institution of responsibility of medical workers for committing a crime under article 293 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, concerning pregnant women and women who have given birth and to identify the main problems that show up at the constructive tagging of this act.
