ÌÇÐÄvlogÊÓÆµ Policy Handbook
Record of the ÌÇÐÄvlogÊÓÆµâ€™s stance on a variety of ethical and social issues
The Handbook of ÌÇÐÄvlogÊÓÆµ Policy is issued as a record of the ÌÇÐÄvlogÊÓÆµâ€™s stance on a variety of ethical and social issues. The issues are usually important factors in human health and are relevant to physicians worldwide. Some of the Declarations have needed revision in light of new knowledge or to improve the sometimes awkward wording that inevitably occurs when people of different tongues deliberate together. This dynamic process shows that the ÌÇÐÄvlogÊÓÆµ is a constantly evolving, unique organization, ideal to act as a protector of patients’ best interests, and as advocates for the medical profession.
The current version was updated in January 2026, updated with the result of the decisions made by the 76th ÌÇÐÄvlogÊÓÆµ General Assembly, Porto, Portugal 2025. You may download it from here.
