This study aims to identify and examine existing national or international guidelines on the inclusion of ethics in basic medical education. By doing so, it hopes to explore and highlight the similarities and differences in their pedagogical goals and prescribed content, thereby contributing to a more holistic understanding of medical ethics education.
Background: It has been widely recognized that ethics is central to the practice of medicine. Since physicians' identities are heavily influenced by their basic medical training, education in ethics during this period would facilitate their professional development. To enable this, some global and national organizations have published guidelines detailing the aspects of ethics that need to be taught to medical student. However, it is not known how many such guidelines exist and to what extent they concur or differ.Aim: This study aims to identify and examine the content of existing national or international guidelines on the inclusion of ethics in basic medical education, in the English language. By doing so, it hopes to explore and highlight the similarities and differences regarding their pedagogical goals and their prescribed content, thereby contributing to a more holistic understanding on the state of medical ethics education. Methods: Data collection was performed through systematic searches on Google and on scientific databases. The guidelines that fulfilled the inclusion criteria were thematically analyzed using the method proposed by Braun and Clarke (2006). The resulting themes and sub-themes were grouped and characterized.Results: Thirteen guidelines (ten national and three international) fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Among these, two major approaches can be discerned: value-based and norm-based. Value-based guidelines tend to be more globally applicable, because they endorse more abstract and universal principles. Norm-based guidelines, on the other hand, are more context-specific and have a practical focus. Understanding this distinction could facilitate discussions on different perspectives in ethics education.
