The consequences range from a reparation of the damage in civil matters, a corresponding sanction in jurisdictional aspects, and the imposition of penalties in criminal liability. Identifying the type of obligations that health personnel must assume to determine malpractice is relevant. Medicine, being a professional with technical preparation, has rules for its practice that, following the state of knowledge of this science, set the guidelines within which health personnel must perform, and this is what is known as the lex artis</span></span></p>2025-01-05T00:00:00-06:00Copyright (c) 2024 Itzel Pacheco Naviahttps://repository.uaeh.edu.mx/revistas/index.php/MBR/article/view/14110Ethical challenges in the era of bacterial resistance: the threat of indiscriminate use of antibiotics2025-01-05T12:32:58-06:00Leonardo Daniel Trujillo Manceraldtrum@gmail.comJosefina Reynoso Vázquezjreynoso@uaeh.edu.mxJesús Carlos Ruvalcaba Ledezmadcspjcarlos@gmail.comArturo Salazar Camposarturo_salazar10347@uaeh.edu.mxSonia Maetzin León Alvaradoleonsomaet@gmail.com<p>The overuse of antibiotics has led to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, posing an ethical and public health challenge. Bacterial resistance has become a real threat to the health of populations. It renders treatments for infectious diseases ineffective, increasing the risk of complications during medical interventions and raising the risk of exposure of the population to potentially fatal infections. It is worth mentioning that bacterial resistance is entirely preventable, so it is everyone's responsibility to make conscious use of antibiotics.</p> <p>This article reviews the basic concepts of bacterial resistance and then makes a bioethical reflection on the prescription and use of antibiotics.</p> <p>A non-systematic bibliographic review was carried out in databases such as Pubmed, Google Scholar, and Scopus to identify basic concepts of bacterial resistance. In addition, a database review of bioethics articles was carried out to create a bioethical reflection on the prescription and correct use of antibiotics.</p> <p>The abuse of antibiotics and the resulting bacteria resistant to antibiotics poses an ethical dilemma involving both the medical community and the entire society.</p>2025-01-05T00:00:00-06:00Copyright (c) 2024 Leonardo Daniel Trujillo Mancera, Josefina Reynoso Vázquez, Jesús Carlos Ruvalcaba Ledezma, Arturo Salazar Campos, Sonia Maetzin León Alvaradohttps://repository.uaeh.edu.mx/revistas/index.php/MBR/article/view/13932Bioethics in the care of older people2025-01-05T12:32:58-06:00Nayeli Valdez Gayossova196511@uaeh.edu.mxArianna Omaña Covarrubiasaomana@uaeh.edu.mxAna Teresa Nez Castroteresa_nez@uaeh.edu.mxMaría del Refugio Acuña Gurrolamaria_acuna@uaeh.edu.mxEdwin Gualberto Barron Calvaedwin_barron@uaeh.edu.mxEdwin Alonso Chávez Mejíach278471@uaeh.edu.mx<p>Aging is inevitable, we will all reach this stage of life, so the population that is already in it must be treated with the respect it deserves and thus be able to enjoy a quality of life.

In Mexico, most criminal legislation defines abortion as the death of the product of conception at any time during pregnancy. With the evolution in the recognition and defense of human rights, it has currently been considered that the prohibition of abortion affects the exercise of reproductive freedom and access to health services, since it forces women to a procreation and are prevented from accessing safe abortion. Thus, approximately a third of local laws have modified the crime of abortion to define it as the interruption of pregnancy after the twelfth week of gestation; With this, a trend has begun towards not prohibiting this procedure during the first twelve weeks of pregnancy. However, it is not without ethical and legal implications, since health personnel may also object to participating for reasons of conscientious objection.</p>2025-01-05T00:00:00-06:00Copyright (c) 2024 Alejandro Pacheco Gómez
