Technical Reflection and Ethical Care Based on Clinical Practice / 中国医学伦理学

ABSTRACT

While modern medical technology improves human health, it also changes people’s ethical ways of understanding life, weighing interests, planning for a good life, and building public order and good customs. Technical reflection and clinical evidence-based practice are highly complementary. On the one hand, the cognitive purport of clinical practice changes from "causality" to "correlation". On the other hand, technical reflection opens the review perspective of ethical care. Technical reflection helps medical professionals improve working methods through technical control and ethical care, promote the transition of clinical practice from "cognitive domain" to "ethical domain", and then respond to the basic questions of "what should be done" and "how should be done" in clinical practice.
