The Doctor Commitment In The Scope Of The Medical Probability

Authors : Mechekour Khalida .

Abstract

Medical work involves a large percentage of probability, so a doctor can't be held accountable for not healing his patient, as this healing depends on factors and considerations that are not subject to the doctor's will, so the place of his obligation was limited to exerting care without achieving the result. But with the emergence of modern medicine, a new role for the doctor emerged, which is to give the patient a better and more comfortable life, which took the doctor's tasks out of the classical concept, and it became necessary to go beyond the traditional rules and recognize the existence of modern obligations that balance the doctor-patient relationship in response to the requirements of modern treatment. Hence, the aim of our study of the modern obligations of the doctor in the context of probabilistic medicine and the need to re-adapt the care of the doctor to modern medicine.
