Which idea is included in the Hippocratic Oath but not in the Declaration of Geneva

Social Studies

Ratling [72]4 years ago
7 0

The Hippocratic oath is an ancient Greek oath and the first explicit expression of medical ethics. It is still a simbolic ritual for many novel doctors nowadays. It involves promises made by new doctors, for instance, related to confidentiality with the patients  and to the principle of non-maleficence. This principle of non-maleficence states that it is preferable not to harm the patient to a greater extent, than to do good to him/her.

The Declaration of Geneva was adopted in 1948 as a revision of the Hippocratic Oath, aiming to adapt it to modern times. It has been subsequently amended in 1968, 1983, 1994 and 2017.

One important change between the two of them, is the replacement of the idea of "life and health" contained in the first, by just "health" of the patient as the doctort's main consideration. These somehow reflects a change of mentality in the society and in the profession, as it discards the idea of extending life at all costs.

Answer:

Alternative A

Explanation:

The Inca empire was called Tahuantinsuyu which means "Land of the Four Quarters" and each of the four provinces was governed by a leader named Apu. The reason for this division was to facilitate the control and administration of the empire. To govern a large territory they needed fast communication so they created roads to improve the way of messengers through the empire, reducing the time for valuable messages to be delivered to the leaders within a few days.
