ACS CODE OF ETHICS 2

The ACS “code of ethics” states that the primacy of public interest should be above those

of personal, corporate, or sectional interests. The next it shows that the enhancement of quality of

life should be enhanced of those affected by the work. It means that the quality of life should be

the priority of the surgeons. They may say the treatment is not acceptable, and it is not beneficial

or healthy, and they feel that while success is probable, the negative outcomes are even worse. It

is their view that it is acceptable whether a bad outcome is either neutral or good. If the computer

had a failure, the outcome would be death. It is called ethical and healthy if the individual has

been promised to live after a treatment [ CITATION Don15 \l 1033 ].

The professional ethics allows practitioners to offer direction on the best way they can

support each other and community without the risk of being overshadowed by fewer ethical

actions of other practitioners. Hippocratic Oath was one of the first formal ethics laws. This

allowed doctors to obey laws such that their patients could not be hurt. It helped patients to know

what to expect from doctors and led them to support their physicians, thereby benefiting the

practice as well as themselves [ CITATION Chr12 \l 1033 ].

The current surgeons are not skilled enough to perform robotic surgery. The patients will

at huge risks with robotic surgery as per the current environment. It was the main reason that

cancer surgery in the problem went wrong. One concern is the electrical currents 'float' or arc

through the patient's body from the device. Unintentionally, an artery can be sliced by a surgeon

since it is not solid. Surgeons who do not have adequate abilities and experience may not be

expected to run them [ CITATION Ton16 \l 1033 ].

In certain cases, it is very challenging to show that robotic operations are greater than

standard keyholes in terms of health and performance. Nonetheless, more and more research

reveals that robot service is generally more costly than human activity-nor will the outcomes be

any better. There is no debate regarding the fascinating and enticing growth of robotic surgery.

In the end, with several projects, it will be the future. Nonetheless, it seems only fair to break for

air right now, in order to maintain patient protection and dwindling cash [ CITATION Joh131 \l

1033 ].
