Concomitancia y responsabilidad restringida del profesional de la medicina en el acto médico complejo
(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2020) Hernández García, John Fredy; Quintero Calvache, Juan Carlos
This article aims to show that the concomitance in the complex medical act restricts the responsibility of the medical professional against failures in the decisions adopted for the treatment of the patient. From a qualitative approach, an analysis of the Colombian doctrine and jurisprudence that treats the concomitant acts within the annexed functions that integrate the so-called medical care will be made. It is tried to establish that the responsibility derived from the complex medical act is not exclusive to the doctor, since the concomitance in the complex medical act conditions the decisions regarding the diagnosis of the diseases, treatment and surgical interventions. It is concluded that the responsibility of the doctor is not absolute by virtue of the actions that take place in the midst of the complexity and the number of individuals that today participate in patient care.
