Medical Ethics and Professionalism in the Digital Age
This presentation examines the ethical implications and professional responsibilities that arise with the integration of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, wearables, virtual reality, social media, and telemedicine in healthcare. It will explore critical ethical principles—including patient autonomy, confidentiality, and informed consent—as they relate to innovative technologies and their impact on the patient-physician relationship. The presentation will also address how to maintain professionalism in digital communications and interactions while leveraging these technologies to enhance patient care.
