3. These rapidly involving and growing social media have potential to promote public health
by providing powerfulinstruments for communication and education. However evidence
is emerging fromstudies, legal cases, and media reports that the use of these new
technologies is creating severalethical problems for medical practitioners as well as
medical studentalso.
Itis a common observation that medical practitioners, hospital are being attacked by
“Our society, Mediaissue, Political issue, Government policy, Clinical establishact 2013,
Consumer form, Human rights, Medical tourism etc.“even mostof practitioner heated
by family members of patient for alleged medical negligence. The doctor-patient
relationship is one of the most unique and privileged based on mutual trustand faith, but
there is a great decline in the doctor patient relationship. The reason may be
communication gap between them, commercialization of health services raising
expectations from doctor’s increased consumer awareness.
 Medical practitioners are mental and social harassmentnot a piece of minds.
Negligenceby doctors has to be judge who is not trainedinmedical science.
They rely on experts’ opinion and decide on the basis principles of reasonableness and
prudence. This brings into a lot of subjectively into decision & the effort is to reduce it &
have certain objective criteria. This may sound simple but is tremendously difficult as
medical profession involves & experimentation helps in its evolution. Thus, there is a
constanttussle between the established procedures & innovativemethods. But
Innovation simply for sakeof being different, without any reason is not acceptable &
these issues makes it extremely challenging to decide negligence by doctor.
Awareness & prevalent practices among the health care professionals especially among
those who directly or indirectly involvewith treatment of patients. As for awareness is
concern regarding especially regarding proceduralawareness, the documentation &
various other medico-legal issue.
Police & Harassment of doctor.
An interesting order passed by the supremecourt in case was a warning given to police
officials not to arrestor harass doctors thefacts clearly come within the parameters. Laid
down in Jacob Mathew’s Case. Even a threat was given to policeman orders. They
themselves have to face legal action.
D.O.T:- Doctor should well acquainted about duties in relation of operative casethat not
delegate duty to operate another doctor, not to experiment without valid reason &
without consent, informthe patient about natureof operation & risk involved particular
about site & extent of operation assistanceby qualified and experienced anesthetist only
use only properly sterilized instruments, casenot to leave any post operative case, D.O.T
should be followed by PMexamination.

5.  Sec.304-A Dealwith death caused by negligence, According to this sec. the offence

negligence under sec. 304-A of IPC, in which the offence is bailable and the doctor
can be released on bail. This judgmenthas been passed by Bombay high courtin
criminal revision application no.282 of 1996 dated 28th

MCI guidelines in India regarding how long to retain medical records. The hospitals
follow their own pattern retaining the records for varied periods of time. Under the
provisions of the Limitation Act 1963 and Section 24A of the Consumer Protection Act
1986, which dictates the time within which a complaint has to be filed, it is advisableto
maintain records for 2 years for outpatient records and 3 years for inpatient and surgical
cases. However the provisions of the Consumer Protection Act allows for condoning the

6. delay in appropriate cases. This means that the records may be needed even after 3
years. Itis important to note that in pediatric cases a medical negligence casecan be filed
by the child after acquiring the age of majority.
Medical records areacceptable as per Section 3 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872
amended in 1961 in a court of law.
The provisions of specific Acts like the Pre Conception Prenatal Diagnostic Test Act, 1994
(PNDT), EnvironmentalProtection Act, etc. necessitate proper maintenance of records
that have to be retained for periods as specified in the Act. Section 29 of the PNDTAct,
1994 requires that all the documents be maintained for a period of 2 years or until the
disposalof the proceedings. The PNDT Rules, 1996 requires that when the records are
maintained on a computer, a printed copy of the record should be preserved after
authentication by the person responsiblefor such record.
Bombay High Court held that doctors cannotclaim confidentiality when the patient or his
relatives demand medical records] With the enforcement of the MCI Regulations, 2002 it
has been held without confusion that the patient has a right to claim medical records
pertaining to his treatment and the hospitals are under obligation to maintain them and
providethem to the patient on request.
