본 연구는 일 대학 간호과와 비 간호과 학생의 생명의료윤리 의식을 파악하여 대학생들의 올바른 생명윤리 의식 함양에 필요한 윤리교육의 방향과 교육과정 내용을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 시도하였다. 생명의료윤리 의식은 4점 만점에 간호과 학생들이 평균 3.04점으로 비 간호과 학생들의 2.88점보다 높았고 이들 간에 유의한 차이가 있었다(t=6.79, p<.001). 두 그룹간에 태아의 생명권, 태아진단, 신생아 생명권, 안락사, 장기이식, 뇌사영역에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 나타내었다. 대상자들의 생명의료윤리 의식에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인은 간호과에서는 한 학기 이상 윤리관련 수업 경험 유무, 생명윤리 관련 문제로 고민한 경험 유무, 윤리적 가치관이었고, 비 간호과는 학년으로 나타났다. 결과적으로 대상자들의 낮은 생명의료윤리 의식은 각 학과별로 기본적인 생명윤리 교육부터 고학년으로 올라갈수록 체계적이고 복합적인 윤리적 사고 판단과 의사결정 능력, 가치관 고취를 위한 교육과정을 통해 충족되어야 할 것이다. 추후 생명의료윤리 의식의 하위영역별 집중연구나 질적 연구를 제언한다.

Purpose: This descriptive cross-sectional study aimed to examine the influence of nurses' moral sensitivity and ethical values on their biomedical ethics awareness. Methods: The study participants included 140 registered nurses working at three hospitals in Jeollabuk-do Province over six months. The data were collected from June 22 to July 3, 2020, and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, an independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression analysis with the IBM SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. Results: As a result of an analysis using stepwise multiple regression, nurses' biomedical ethics awareness was found to be significantly influenced by ethical values (β=.36, p<.001), moral sensitivity (β=.21, p=.007), and education in biomedical ethics (β=.16, p=.042) (adjusted R²=.21, p<.001). Conclusion: These findings suggest that moral sensitivity and ethical values are key factors in hospital nurses' development of biomedical ethics. Furthermore, the devising and implementing of a practical education program based on practical cases in medical situations to enhance nurses' biomedical ethics awareness is needed.

Purpose: This study was done to identify the experiences of ethical issues and needs for ethics education in clinical nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was used and data were collected in 2013. Participants were 428 clinical nurses working in the general units of seven medical hospitals. The Ethical Issues in Clinical Practice Tool was used. Data analysis was performed using SPSS/WIN 19.0. Results: 'Providing care with a possible risk to your health' was the most frequent and disturbing ethical problems for nurses. The highest helpful ethical topic was 'the patients' right, autonomy and informed consent'. The ethical issue experience was significantly different according to education level, work units, and type of employment. The necessity of ethics education was statistically different according to age, religion, level of education, duration of working as RN, position, shift type, and continuing education about nursing ethics.

In modern society, doctors are a representative example of professionals-that is, doctors are members of an occupation with high barriers to entry. For doctors, long-term education, training, and licensing are factors that make it difficult to enter medical practice. These external characteristics, which have mainly arisen in the modern era, play an important part in the professional identity of doctors. Nonetheless, the core of the doctor's identity is the identity of the healer. In today's Korean society, the universal identity of doctors as healers results from a combination of the special historical identity of professionals with high entry barriers. Korean society currently demands a high level of ethical awareness from doctors. These demands are partly derived from the nature of the practice of medical care, but they also reflect demands for strong social responsibility as professionals. It is difficult to cultivate professional ethics simply by imposing legitimate virtues, presenting an ideal model, or emphasizing moral education that is not fully realistic. A deep-rooted sense of professional ethics stems from a clear awareness of professional identity. Education plays an important role in the formation and awareness of doctors' professional identity, and various types of content and methods can be used in education. However, since the identity of an entity is formed through the process of historical experience, it is thought that the historical process of the formation of doctors as a profession should be included as an important part of education.

This study explores the potential use of artificial intelligence (AI)-based services, specifically ChatGPT-3.5, in medical education. The application of this technology is acknowledged as a valuable tool for simulating authentic clinical scenarios and enhancing learners' diagnostic and communication skills. To construct a case, students received ChatGPT training using a clinical ethics casebook titled "Clinical Ethics Cases and Commentaries for Medical Students and Physicians." Subsequently, a role-play script was generated based on this training. The initial draft of the script was reviewed by two medical professors and was further optimized using ChatGPT-3.5. Consequently, a comprehensive role-play script, accurately reflecting real-world clinical situations, was successfully developed. This study demonstrates the potential for effectively integrating AI technology into medical education and provides a solution to overcome limitations in developing role-play scripts within conventional educational settings. However, the study acknowledges that AI cannot always generate flawless role-play scripts and recognizes the necessity of addressing these limitations and ethical concerns. The research explores both the potential and limitations of employing AI in the early stages of medical education, suggesting that future studies should focus on overcoming these limitations while further investigating the potential applications of AI in this field.

The medical profession has the problem of lack of bioethics, due to the expansion of capitalism and mannerism after modernization. Therefore, the need of education of bioethics is increasing, however, the cramming system of education is insufficient for promoting personal morals. So the author studied ancient and present bioethics and searched for the cause of current bioethics absence and the method of overcoming it. Especially, studying the vocational features of oriental medical doctor as profession and the problems of education of bioethics in oriental medical college, the author searched for the directions of educations of bioethics. The conclusions are as follows. The current medical profession have ethical problems because of social moral hazard, evils of capitalism, change of doctor-patient relationship due to expansion of consumerism, limitation of autonomy due to commercialize of hospitals, decrease of knowledge monopolism of professionals, moral indifference and frailty, and a missdeed preference. The education of bioethics needs "Rest's 4 components" but the current education of bioethics in oriental medicine college lacks of time and is composed of the cramming system of education. So it needs various types of education system. Morals are subjective and discretionary personal character. Therefore, informational education is insufficient for enhancing morals and complex education for various personal attainments (various social indirect experience, philosophical speculation, mental serenity) is needed. It has to be done on the basis of educational method by experience not lecture, long term expectation, and basic understanding of bioethics.

본 연구는 다양한 규모의 의료기관에 근무하는 의료인을 대상으로 Ethical Issues in Clinical Practice 도구로, 윤리교육 요구에 대한 내용을 조사하여 추후 윤리교육 프로그램 개발에 도움이 되는 기초자료를 제공하고자 시도되었다. G도에 소재한 의료기관의 의료인 149명을 대상으로 자료수집 하였다. IBM SPSS WIN/21.0을 이용하여 t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, Multiple regression을 사용하였다. 윤리교육 필요성은 말기치료결정 이슈(r=-.22, p=.007), 환자간호 이슈(r=-.28, p<.001)와 역상관관계가 있었다. 대상자의 윤리교육 필요성에 가장 영향을 미치는 요인은 환자간호이슈(β=-.246, p=.035)이었고, 그 다음으로 불교(β=.208, p=.010)이었다. 수정된 설명력은 13.4%이었다(F=5.596, p<.001). 윤리교육 프로그램 내용을 구성할 때 대상자의 요구도를 반영하여 환자간호 이슈 내용과, 대상자의 종교를 반영한 맞춤형 프로그램 마련이 필요하며, 윤리교육 프로그램 개발에 도움이 되는 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
