DEONTOLOGICAL APPROACH AS A METHODOLOGICAL SUBJECT OF SCIENTIFIC-PEDAGOGICAL RESEARCHES IN THE SYSTEM OF MEDICAL EDUCATION

Introduction. In modern conditions of medical education, conducting scientific and pedagogical research requires a profound methodological training from researchers, which can be explained by the strengthening of the links between medical education with different sciences, as well as by the orientation, integration of the efforts of all anthropological sciences on man. The methodology in this process plays a decisive role, since it promotes the integrity, systematic, productive, and increasing the professional orientation of research. It is important that the application of research methods in various sciences (psychology, sociology, mathematics) should contribute to solving the research tasks. Purpose of the article is generalization of ideas about the deontological approach as a methodological basis of scientific and pedagogical research in the system of medical education. Results. The contribution of the English philosopher and jurist Bertram of Jeremiah to the development of the basic principles of medical deontology is described. It is proposed to consider deontology as one of the sections of medical ethics – a scientific branch that studies the specificity of the emergence and development of medical morals in the context of specific historical conditions. The necessity of an adequate combination of socio-moral and moral-psychological principles of the deontological approach is proved. It is shown that the harmonized combination of such principles is conditioned by the specificity of the situation, which is based on the choice of the form of behavior of the medical worker according to the conditions of his professional activity and the individual characteristics of the patient. Conclusions. the behavior of medical workers, their relationships with employees, patients, and their relatives have been improving for many centuries. These norms and principles should continue to undergo positive changes, to serve as the basis for the formation of medical ethics and deontology. To learn to adhere to these norms is necessary not only during professional activity, but also in the process of communication with colleagues, patients, their relatives and relatives. These norms and regulations are of prime importance in the deontological approach as the basis for scientific and pedagogical research in the system of medical education.
