While ethical behavior has always been part of cardiac surgical practice, ethical deliberation has only recently become an important component of cardiac surgical practice. Issues such as informed consent, conflict of interest and professional self-regulation, among many others, have increasingly attracted the attention of cardiac surgeons. This article covers several broad topics of interest to cardiac surgeons and cardiologists and discusses several other topics more briefly. There is much uncertainty regarding what the future holds for cardiac surgical practice, research and culture and we also discuss the background of ethical issues to serve as a platform for envisioning what is to come.
虽然道德行为一直是心脏外科手术实践的一部分，但道德审议直到最近才成为心脏外科手术实践的一个重要组成部分。诸如知情同意、利益冲突和职业自我监管等问题，以及许多其他问题，越来越引起心脏外科医生的关注。本文涵盖了心脏外科医生和心脏病专家感兴趣的几个广泛主题，并更简要地讨论了其他几个主题。关于心脏外科手术实践、研究和文化的未来走向存在很多不确定性，我们还讨论了伦理问题的背景，以此作为展望未来的平台。
