| Abstract | The article focuses on the clinical obligations of health care professionals in research protocols. It notes that the difference between the goals of clinical care and clinical research are said to be the reasons for the tension in the commitments of medical professionals. It mentions that improvement on the condition of patients is the aim of clinical care, while validation of information for future patients is the aim of clinical trials. |
