          Abstract

          La profesión médica es un tipo específico de ocupación que da respuesta a los requerimientos económicos, políticos y sociales de la comunidad. Sin embargo, en el ámbito de las profesiones relacionadas con la salud, dicho concepto trasciende este entorno al entrar en juego la perspectiva ética en la que, idealmente, el profesional de la salud antepone los intereses de los demás a los propios. De esta manera, la profesión médica se convierte en una forma de vida regida por principios éticos y guiada por los más altos estándares de profesionalismo, constituyéndose en una vocación y no en una simple ocupación. Para devolver a la profesión médica su vocación distintiva, es esencial analizar las motivaciones intrínsecas y la ética de vida de las nuevas generaciones de médicos y, a partir de ahí, desarrollar -a manera de competencias- conocimientos, habilidades, actitudes y valores que propicien el desarrollo del profesionalismo, logrando finalmente una mejor relación médico-paciente, situando el bienestar de este último como principal interés.

          A profissão médica é uma ocupação específica que responde às demandas econômicas, políticas e sociais da comunidade. No entanto, no domínio das profissões relacionadas com a saúde, o conceito vai além deste ambiente, já que entra em jogo a perspectiva ética, na que -idealmente- o profissional de saúde põe os interesses dos outros acima dos seus próprios. Por tanto, esta profissão torna-se um modo de vida orientado por princípios éticos e guiado por altos padrões de profissionalismo. Conseqüentemente, é uma vocação e não uma simples ocupação. Se desejamos que a profissão retorne a sua vocação distinta, é essencial analisar as motivações intrínsecas e a ética de vida das novas gerações de médicos e, a partir daí, desenvolver conhecimento, habilidades, atitudes e valores -semelhantes a competências- conducentes ao desenvolvimento do profissionalismo para conseguir uma melhor relação médico-paciente cujo interesse primário seja o bem-estar de este último.

          Translated abstract

          The medical profession is a specific kind of occupation that responds to the economic, political and social requirements of the community. Nevertheless, in the health care professions, that concept goes even further when the ethical perspective becomes involved. Ideally, health care professionals give priority to the needs of others-individually or collectively- and place their own needs second. In this way, medicine becomes in not just an occupation, but a vocation and a way of life ruled by ethical principles and guided by high professional standards. To restore medicine's distinctive vocation, it is essential to analyze the intrinsic motivations and life ethics of new generations of physicians and, on that basis, to begin to develop -in the manner of proficiencies- the knowledge, abilities, attitudes and values that enhance professionalism. In the end, this will provide for a better physician-patient relationship, by invariably giving priority to the patient's best interests.

              Toward a normative definition of medical professionalism.

              H Swick (2000)
              In recent years, professionalism in medicine has gained increasing attention. Many have called for a return to medical professionalism as a way to respond to the corporate transformation of the U.S. health care system. Yet there is no common understanding of what is meant by the word professionalism. To encourage dialog and to arrive eventually at some consensus, one needs a normative definition. The author proposes such a definition and asserts that the concept of medical professionalism must be grounded both in the nature of a profession and in the nature of physicians' work. Attributes of medical professionalism reflect societal expectations as they relate to physicians' responsibilities, not only to individual patients but to wider communities as well. The author identifies nine behaviors that constitute medical professionalism and that physicians must exhibit if they are to meet their obligations to their patients, their communities, and their profession. (For example, "Physicians subordinate their own interests to the interests of others.") He argues that physicians must fully comprehend what medical professionalism entails. Serious negative consequences will ensue if physicians cease to exemplify the behaviors that constitute medical professionalism and hence abrogate their responsibilities both to their patients and to their chosen calling.
