Resumen
GONZALEZ FRAGA, Mario Joaquín y HERRERA RODRIGUEZ, Olga Nicolasa. Bioethics and new technologies: Telemedicine. Rev Cubana Enfermer [online]. 2007, vol.23, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-2961.
In the framework of this new millenium, characterized by the constant growing of information volumes and the accelerated development of technologies for the information management, a bibliographic review was made to describe the bioethical impact of telemedicine, which is a newly used technology promising to become a tool that will support the solution of some health problems existing in the present world. Nevertheless, its development should be closely linked to the use of national and international regulations considering the ethical aspects that influence on this novel health service. The conscious and consequent attention to the principles of Bioethics leads those responsible for research and medical assistance to a greater ability and improvement of practice in the exercise of their activities. The compulsory and unstoppable development of medical technology, in its application, may cause the vulnerability of bioethical principles, mainly those of justice and well-being, with a deterioration of the favours the persons involved try to receive.
