Abstract
Today in the age of technology and cost management, the traditional doctor-patient relationship is eroding. The attainment of the best professional principles, attitudes, expertise, and conduct, during the transformation of a medical student to a practitioner, begins on the first day of medical college and continues throughout. The need of the hour is to retain the best elements of a doctor-patient relationship, and teach it to medical students. This training must be started as soon as a student enters medical college. Hence a subject called as ‗bioethics‘ has now been introduced into the curriculum. Bioethics education is the best way to achieve the goal of professionalism and it must start in the dissection hall for medical students by taking a ‗cadaveric oath‘. Cadavers are to be held in high esteem and are to be regarded as not only the ‗first patient‘ but also the ‗first teacher‘ of a medical student. Conclusion: This paper discusses the current challenges faced by medical professionals and emphasizes the relevance of a ‗cadaveric oath‘ as a part of bioethics in today‘s age of advanced medical technology. The paper also elaborates the contents of a ‗cadaveric oath‘ and the right method of administering it.
