Document Summary
Hlst 4010 clinical research and experimentation on humans: debate. Is it ethical to conduct clinical trials of a drug on human subjects in a country that would not be able to afford the treatment: group work online exercise. Look up experiment/trial online answer the following: what was the experiment about, where was it done, who was experimented on, why is it unethical, what is the significance of looking at unethical/experiments and trials, articles and case studies. Experiments on human subjects have always been controversial, historically and contemporary, locally, and globally. Risks to individual subjects for the benefit of others (medical context the benefits often accrue to future patients) Attempt to answer an important clinical question. Enroll participants as required by the hypothesis under investigation (not for reasons of convenience or habit) Have a favorable or at least proportionate risk-benefit ratio.
