The findings of the present study show that the basic principles of patients’ rights in Fiqh of Imamiyya are used as an important variable in determining the cases of patients' rights. But in the realm of international law, the fundamental principles of patients' rights do not merely have an auxiliary function of recognizing and interpreting rules.

The basic principles of patients’ rights in Fiqh of Imamiyya are used as an important variable and factor in determining the rulings, the effects of the rulings and in general determining the instances of patients' rights. These principles do not directly and explicitly provide specific provisions regarding patients' rights. But this is not the case in international law. The basic principles of patients' rights are in some cases closely related to the peremptory norms. Simply put, some of the fundamental principles of patients' rights in the international human rights system are the peremptory norms. Peremptory norms in the international human rights environment have important implications, including "non-Derogability". non-Derogability means that these principles cannot be suspended or violated under any circumstances.
