CORREA, Catalina e BAUTISTA, Camilo Andrés. Reflections on professionalism and dignified death: vital conditions, not available?. Rev. Med [online]. 2022, vol.30, n.1, pp.11-16. Epub 30-Jun-2023. ISSN 0121-5256. https://doi.org/10.18359/rmed.5943.
This reflective article calls for a return to compassion and medical professionalism that have been sensitively affected by the pandemic. In the context of bereavement, the authors reflect on the vital medications unavailable to alleviate the suffering and pain of patients at the end of life. The text invites patients to exercise their right to health and dignified death and calls on readers to think about research and innovation as alternatives to confront the national conjuncture of shortages of medicines and medical devices.
