This document discusses the need for greater ethics in laboratory medicine in developing countries. It notes that doctors often order tests casually and without medical necessity, and corporate hospitals promote excessive testing for financial gain. This leads to decreased quality of care and unhealthy competition. While regulations have prevented unethical experiments on animals, many invasive and unnecessary tests are performed on humans without proper consent. The document calls for more accountability, such as having accreditation organizations assess medical necessity and quality of testing. It emphasizes the importance of patient consent, confidentiality, and establishing standards to ensure ethical and safe practices in medical laboratories.
