Ethical consequences of current transformation processes of medicine from professional ethics point of view

In the paper, we emphasize the idea of radical changes in contemporary medicine that have occurred as a result of the unprecedented development of scientific and technological progress. There is a growing need to analyse the current state and problems in the field of medicine, to consider its new goals and perspectives with an emphasis on the ethical dimension. From a wide range of questions and problems of contemporary medicine, we examine the ethical aspects of the patient's autonomy, commercialization of medicine and personalized medicine. We point out that applied occupational ethics in this field also provides a strategy for cultivating professional responsibility for doctors (healthcare professionals).
