辅助生殖技术(assisted reproduction technique,ART)的飞速发展给社会带来了复杂伦理难题。因此,在ART全过程中加强伦理管理并对其后果进行评价,具有深刻的内涵价值和深远的社会意义。只有发挥生殖医学伦理委员会作为一个工作机构的职能,在医患人群中加强ART技术基本原理及相关伦理原则的宣传教育,强化医学伦理的监督机制,落实充分的知情同意等措施,才能促使医患人群都能够自觉遵守优良的医学伦理道德规范,保证人类辅助生殖技术的健康发展,使ART发挥积极的、革命性的意义。
The rapid development of assisted reproductive technologies(ART) raises complex ethical and social problems.This article explores how to perform ethical governance in ART and evaluates the social consequences.In order to urge doctors and patients to abide by medical ethics and moral norms and to ensure the successful development of ART,we argue that ethics committees must be robust and that their guidelines must be followed.Specifically,it is necessary to improve awareness of the fundamentals of ART and related ethical principles among doctors and patients.This includes the need to intensify mechanisms to fully monitor the implementation and enforcement of medical ethical principles and doctrines,such as informed consent.
