“…In other studies, Budimir et al [21] showed that Croatian dentists have limited knowledge of dental regulations, and the awareness of patients’ rights is imperfect. Similarly, Tahani et al [12] reported that over 74% of dentists in Isfahan city, the Islamic Republic of Iran, have poor knowledge of dental regulations.…”

“…Although the current study revealed that years of experience were not a significant factor affecting the knowledge of dental regulations, newer generations of dentists with experience less than 9 years have somewhat better knowledge compared to dentists who have been working for 9 years or more. Likewise, Budimir et al [21] showed that years of experience did not affect the overall dental ethics among dentists; however, a single ethical issue was significantly more common among dentists with fewer years of practice. These findings differ from that of Tahani et al [12] who found that dentists with more years of experience (≥9 years) have a significantly higher knowledge score.…”

Introduction: The rising number of complaints against dentists in Saudi Arabia was the main motivator to conduct this study, which aimed to assess the level of knowledge regarding health professional regulations among dentists, identify the associated factors, and explore the consequences of malpractice experience. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted between February and July 2022 among dentists working at public or private dental clinics in Saudi Arabia and who had medical malpractice insurance coverage. To conduct the research, a predestined questionnaire comprised three sections: section 1 included 13 questions aimed to assess the knowledge related to the health professional regulations in Saudi Arabia; section 2 evaluated the most significant changes in providing dental care as a result of complaint experience; and section 3 assessed the impact of the complaint on dentists’ professional practice and physical and psychological conditions. Results: The study included 148 dentists who responded to the questionnaire. The dentists’ median score of their knowledge concerning legal health regulations in Saudi Arabia was 7 (range: 6–9) out of 13. The median score was higher among dentists who had been sued compared with those who had never been sued (8 [IQR: 7–9.75] vs. 7 [IQR: 5.25–9], respectively), although no significant difference was detected (p > 0.05). A significantly higher median score (p = 0.029) was recorded among male dentists (median = 7 [IQR: 6–10]) compared to female dentists (median = 7 [IQR: 5–8]). Conclusion: The overall level of knowledge of dental care legal regulations among the included dentists was good to some extent. Several dentists with a history of malpractice changed their behavior toward patients. This change in behavior was more common among dentists who had been previously sued.

Introduction: The development of a new chemical entity into a drug is of indispensable importance for the progression of health care. As physicians play the main and important part of any clinical trial, it is necessary to know about their awareness about clinical research, drug development, good clinical practices, and regulatory authorities. Objective: This study was designed to assess and compare the knowledge and awareness toward drug development process among medical interns, dental interns, and postgraduates (PGs). Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study enrolling 186 professionals of medical college and 110 professionals of dental college in Punjab who were given a prevalidated questionnaire that included 27 questions related to knowledge regarding drug development process. Data were analyzed for percentage correct responses, mean values, and intergroup comparison by applying t -test using SPSS version 20, IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 20.0. IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA. Results: It was found that medical and dental college professionals had a very poor awareness and knowledge about drug development process to the tune of 33%. Professionals of dental college had 53.7% knowledge of clinical research in comparison to 43.2% of medical college. A statistically significant ( P < 0.05) difference for sections on drug development, clinical research, and regulatory authority among interns and PGs was found with interns possessing better knowledge. Conclusion: It is concluded that regulatory authorities such as Board of Studies of various medical universities, Dental Council of India, and Medical Council of India must take necessary steps to increase the knowledge of drug development process among dental and medical professionals. Incorporation of this topic in educational curriculum in the initial stages of graduation and postgraduation would be beneficial.

“…Os profissionais acessam informações pessoais confidenciais de pacientes para entender seus problemas de saúde, e tais informações são de fato confidenciais, determinando que aqueles que a possuem têm a responsabilidade de protegê-las de divulgação para alheios (BUDIMIR et al, 2013). A contínua busca por melhorias e disponibilização de novos produtos por parte das instituições levaram vários setores a investir em sistemas de informação e tecnologia na área da saúde.…”

O objetivo do estudo foi realizar uma revisão narrativa da literatura dos aspectos bioéticos envolvidos no uso das tecnologias, redes sociais na relação médico/paciente (RMP), utilizando os descritores: bioética, rede social, confidencialidade e autonomia nas seguintes bases de dados: Scielo, PubMed e Google Scholar. Verificou-se que apesar do crescimento constante do uso das tecnologias e redes sociais pelos profissionais da área da saúde, ainda é escasso os estudos que pautam sobre a privacidade, confidencialidade e bioética nesse contexto. Dessa forma, salienta-se ser de extrema importância o desenvolvimento de reflexões relativas aos princípios bioéticos do uso de rede sociais os profissionais da saúde e seus pacientes. Os aspectos bioéticos do uso de informações dos pacientes e sua divulgação deve ser amplamente discutido entre profissionais da área da saúde no intuito de garantir o sigilo dos dados por eles acessados, a privacidade dos pacientes e a qualidade das informações disponibilizadas ao publico geral.
