Abstract:

Bioethics is a transcendental discipline applied to medical training for decision making. Teachers and students lack adequate knowledge. A descriptive crosssectional study was proposed. 15 teachers and 231 students were surveyed to assess the degree of bioethical knowledge through a standardized survey. Low levels of knowledge were found in teachers and students at below 70%. Doctors fom Argentina, Mexico and Ecuador were compared in knowledge without significant differences being found. The level of knowledge about bioethics in teachers and students is limited. It is to establish training and education programs about this subject.
