HERNANDEZ MARTIN, Annia Daisy e PUERTO NODA, Ibars. Bioethical implications in the integral treatment given to patients suffering from rheumatic diseases. Rev Hum Med [online]. 2017, vol.17, n.3, pp. 565-576. ISSN 1727-8120.
Ethics is the part of Practical Philosophy that deals with moral facts and philosophical problems that have their roots in human behavior. Bioethics is the branch of Ethics devoted to providing the principles for correct human behavior, with respect to life. Various procedures are used when treating patients with rheumatic diseases. New technologies have considerably improved their integral treatment; these scientific advances must be used with the main purpose of causing no harm and with prior informed consent. Therefore, it is necessary to argue on the bioethical implications that turn out from the use of scientific-technological advances in the treatment of patients with rheumatic diseases.
