Question : Can a perpetrator be extracted from a hospital bed by an arresting police officer without medical permission?
Can a perpetrator awaiting life-sustaining surgery in a hospital bed be immediately extracted from the hospital by an arresting police officer to be put in jail, in the absence of unauthorized medical leave from the hospital by a doctor? Who has more authority? The police officer or the doctor?

The doctor, basically, the police officer needs permission to enter, let alone depart with the patient. The doctor can offer the police officer the right to guard over his patient, but that is about all the officer should get.

Your medical condition comes first. You will not be taken from the hospital until you are medically stable.
It is not about authority, it is about liability. The department is responsible for your health and welfare while you are in their custody.
If they want you that bad, they will post someone outside the door.

Yes and no. A police officer doesn’t legally need the doctor’s permission to arrest a patient but there’s no way an officer would arrest a patient in the condition you mentioned. If an arrest was absolutely necessary they’d likely have an officer guard the bed at the hospital.
