Abstract:
The advancement in medical technologies dramatically increases the recovery rate of various diseases and promotes human health.Human experiments,as we know,are the essential process for the research and upgrading of novel medical technologies,thus serious issues arise as how to protect the legal rights of human subjects.For the convenience of medical research,many doctors enroll their own patients as subjects in their research projects,in which many ethical issues and even disputes are involved.This thesis gives an ethical analysis on the voluntary will of patients′ informed consent to be the subjects in their doctors′ research projects,and comes up with the justifications for and against,limitation principles for application,and protection mechanism for patients′ legal rights.
