BARREIRO RAMOS, Héctor; GONZALEZ PEREZ, Jorge; BASANTA MONTESINOS, Marlene  y  BARREIRO PENARANDA, Adriana. Criterios sobre la enseñanza de pregrado de la asignatura Medicina Legal y Ética Médica. Educ Med Super [online]. 2003, vol.17, n.3. ISSN 0864-2141.

Forensic Medicine is fundamentally a practical science; however, in the undergraduate medical education, the teaching of this subject is theoretical in 90%, which is a real contradiction. Since assistance professors, students and physicians are the most interested in this matter, it was decided to carry out this study to find out their criteria and reflections on the teaching of Foresinc Medicine and Medical Ethics in the undergraduate education. The 3 groups were separately studied at different moments, they were surveyed according to specific interests for each of them. Data were processed in computers and the main scales used were the central tendency quantitative and percentage methods. Results showed that the 3 groups agreed upon the fact that this subject was taught mostly in a theoretical way, that the number of training classes should be increased and the best way of giving the subject would be providing a Forensic Medicine service as part of the rotation system or in the basic hospital of the medical school. It was concluded that the teaching of Forensic Medicine should be redesigned, although it may be necessary to re-dimension Forensic medicine partly or in the course of the teaching of this subject
