GALVEZ CABRERA, Elisa; GALVEZ CABRERA, Marta; SANTIESTEBAN DIAZ, Marisel y MORALES PONCE, Leonel. Criterio profesional acerca del error médico. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 1998, vol.14, n.1, pp. 32-37. ISSN 1561-3038.
It is demonstrated the lack of knowledge existing among health profesionals about certain aspects of medical ethics, in spite of their extraordinary importance. A survey model is designed and applied to different doctors working at the primary and secondary health care level at the municipality of Plaza de la Revolución, in Havana City. The results obtained corroborate our hypothesis: just one third of the doctors who participated in the survey, despite their years of experience and the high qualification in general of the sample, answered satisfactorily. Other interesting conclusions derived from the analysis of the results are offered
