AB Ethics  is  a  term  that  describes  “doing  good.”  The  study  of  bioethics  as  a  field  separate  from  medicine  itself  is  a  recent  phenomenon.  Physicians  have  historically  set  and  maintained  policies  concerning  ethical  behavior  in  medical  practice.  During  the  last  30  years,  the  distinct  study  of  bioethics  has  come  into  being.  The  obligation  to  act  in  an  ethical  manner  in  medical  practice  requires  that  we  know  something  about  how  we  should  act  and  what  internal  and  external  guidelines  should  be  followed  to  accomplish  that  end.  Bioethical  issues  should  be  examined  from  the  perspectives  of  the  patient  and  family,  the  physician,  and  society  as  a  whole.
