Research on Relationship Between Doctor’ Professional Morality and Private Morality from the Perspective of Practical Wisdom / 中国医学伦理学

ABSTRACT

The cultivation of medical ethics includes two aspects, namely, the education of professional ethics in the doctor-patient communication and the cultivation of personal virtues. The morality of doctors is not only a pure personal morality, but mostly based on the professional ethics of "maintaining the connection with the others" in the doctor-patient relationship. In fact, doctors need to deal with and respond to the interaction of doctor-patient communication in medical service activities, and construct professional ethics and personal virtues within an appropriate "degree" range in correct behavior ways, that is, the virtue and ability of doctors’ practical wisdom. In reality, medical recipients of medical skills (patients and their relatives) not only decline but also lack of active dialogue and interaction power with medical professionals. There is a considerable lack of professional medical knowledge and patients have high medical expectations. Starting from the doctor’s professional ethics, it is necessary to not only abide by the medical scientific guidelines and professional ethics, but also take into account patients’ wishes and expectations, use practical wisdom to balance the measurement of medical benefits and risk, and make correct and appropriate scheme suitable for medical cases, with a view to achieving good medical effect. Patients’ good wishes for medical treatment are limited by the development degree of medical science and technology. A stable and mature doctor-patient relationship needs to be oriented towards fulfilling others, everything except oneself, and oneself. It is necessary to stick to the professional ethics of doctors as professionals, vigorously advocate professional ethics in performing their duties for the sake of obligations, and improve the doctors’ personal practical wisdom and virtue ability. Exploring the practice of medical wisdom from the perspective of medical treatment, grasping the wisdom of medical practice through the coordinated development of medical personal morality and professional ethics to explore the reflection and expression of doctors’ private ethics and professional ethics in promoting the construction of "the art of benevolence".
