Hippocrates' teaching on the ethical and moral values of medicine have captivated physicians, scholars, and historians for over twenty-five centuries, enduring despite the challenges of applying moral guidance across diverse cultures. At the core of Hippocratic ethics is the human relationship between the physician and the patient, with an emphasis on the physician's responsibility to assess potential harm involved in any attempt to heal. The Hippocratic principle "to help, or at least to do no harm" remains as relevant today as it was 2,500 years ago. In the modern context, it serves as a deontological imperative, reminding physicians to evaluate the risks of harm associated with any healing attempt. This concept aligns with the ethical principles of beneficence and non-maleficence, which are at the heart of Hippocratic medical ethics with timeless significance.
希波克拉底关于医学伦理和道德价值的教学吸引了医生、学者和历史学家超过 25 个世纪,尽管在跨文化应用道德指导方面存在挑战,但它仍然存在。希波克拉底伦理学的核心是医生和患者之间的人际关系,重点是医生有责任评估任何试图治愈的潜在伤害。希波克拉底原则“帮助,或至少不造成伤害”在今天与 2500 年前一样相关。在现代背景下,它作为一种道义上的命令,提醒医生评估与任何治愈尝试相关的伤害风险。这一概念与有利原则和不伤害原则相一致,这些原则是希波克拉底医学伦理学的核心,具有永恒的意义。
