Medical Technology: Less Use and More Misuse

Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 5

Abstract

This paper deals with ethical conundrum involved in the surge of high end technology invading medical equipment and gadgets. The pace of ethical understanding and formulation under strips the momentum of value added medical technology. All technologies come at a price, basically the initial investment cost and later the recovery cost which may go on and on. The main casualty in the process is that of practicing ethics. It is killed and the valuable technology is smothered by invaluable social thrust and service. The authors in this article have tried to go deep down in to this malaise and find out some of the root causes with the hope that if saner minds get together ethical practices could be salvaged.
