Ответственность хирурга в различные исторические эпохи

Since the emergence of the profession of a surgeon, as one of the most complex and dangerous types of activities, there have been various norms and rules governing the behavior of doctors. In the process of development of medicine and society, the control of the surgeon’s actions, including ethical and moral standards, religious and regulatory legal acts, changed, passing from the death penalty to full release from liability for failure in treatment or in the event of the patient’s death. Public and state control over the doctor’s activities led to a gradual improvement of the legislation, however, even now new aspects of medical activity that need legal regulation are emerging.
