The Ethics of Clinical Research in the Third World by Marcia Angell

Third world countries and undeveloped countries become new and famous laboratory culture dishes and provide special conditions that researchers can not find in their home countries. This is only for emphasizing problems inherent in all studies, ethical arguments about protection and rights of that subject. It is expected that the same standards will apply in some countries where the economic imbalance between possibility and impossibility may be the biggest obstacle.

Human body protection is the center of clinical research ethics. In most countries, it is regulated by a set of laws and regulations shaped by ethical principles, which form the minimum requirements for clinical research ethics. To understand the application of ethical values ​​in clinical research, it is useful to consider the definition and scope of clinical research. Research is a "systematic investigation including research and development, testing and evaluation to develop or promote knowledge that can be promoted" (1). Clinical research is the research on the basis of human, group, or human derived materials (organization, specimen, cognition, etc.) directly involving researchers directly talking to human subjects and collecting identifiable personal information It is research. According to US regulations, in vitro studies using human tissues unrelated to organisms are excluded from the definition (2).

Clinical ethics is the application of scientific and ethical understanding in the fields of medicine and health science. The purpose of clinical ethics is to improve the quality of patient care. Ethics is important for clinical medicine for two reasons. One is that doctors and patients must choose their own actions as they can do from what they can do in a particular clinical setting. Concept means to take technical and ethical considerations into account

Ethical counseling is the second practical tool for clinical ethics, including patient related activities in clinical ethics. Where medical personnel, patients, and their families are assisted in identifying, analyzing and resolving ethical conflicts in the clinical setting. This model has ethics counseling application qualifications, integration of hospital counseling services, and ethics counseling based on the effectiveness of ethics counseling. The common attribute of ethical negotiations is that the scope is limited: aid is limited to specific cases of ethical issues
