AnnotationThese 16 guidelines follow recommendations made in the Council's Occasional paper number 5, "Research in palliative care". The ethical challenge in all health care, and in all research, is to achieve a balance between four principles of medical ethics: respect for autonomy; beneficence - helping the patients; non-maleficence - not harming the patients; and justice.
