Περίληψη:
The Hippocratic oath is traditionally taken by medical school graduates
at the time of their graduation, either in its original form or in a
modern variation. It is considered the earliest expression of medical
ethics, establishing principles of ethics that remain of paramount
significance today. However, it was written in antiquity, whereas
medicine has been constantly evolving. This article reviews, analyzes,
and interprets each section of the oath to determine to what extent it
remains relevant to contemporary medicine.
