non-maleficence

Would that not, based on the Non-maleficence framework, be considered as minimizing the harm?

The four pillars of medical ethics are Autonomy, Beneficence, Non-Maleficence, and Justice.

The most common framework employs four basic moral principles: respect for autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice.

I think it's more an application of the principle of non-maleficence.

There are four pillars of medical ethics: - Beneficence (doing good) - Non-maleficence (to do no harm) - Autonomy (giving the patient the freedom to choose freely, where they are able) - Justice (ensuring fairness) All of those factors need to be balanced.

"First, do no harm." Physicians, at least in Western medicine, are bound to the principle of non-maleficence.

From my reading then, what is being labelled here as "forbidden territory" is this: "Non-maleficence and beneficence are two fundamental principles in research ethics requiring the maximization of benefits and minimization of potential harms.

> Non-maleficence, which is derived from the maxim, is one of the principal precepts of bioethics that all students in healthcare are taught in school and is a fundamental principle throughout the world.

I'd asked some edgy political questions and it brought up it's ethical guidelines, so I asked what it's ethical standards are: "[My] guidelines are based on widely accepted ethical principles, such as those of autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice.
