THE INTEGRATION OF BIOETHICAL PRINCIPLES AND NATIONAL SPIRITUAL VALUES IN MODERN MEDICAL PRACTICE

This article analyzes the interrelationship between bioethical principles and national spiritual values in modern medical practice from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Rapid scientific and technological advancements particularly in transplantation, reproductive technologies, genetic engineering, and artificial intelligence have generated complex ethical challenges in healthcare. In this context, bioethics functions as a normative framework aimed at protecting human rights, dignity, and the sanctity of life. The study examines the fundamental principles of bioethics autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice within the framework of national mentality and spiritual traditions. Particular attention is given to the influence of such values as compassion, respect for family, social solidarity, and moral responsibility on clinical decision-making processes in Uzbekistan. The article argues that the integration of universal bioethical standards with national spiritual heritage contributes to strengthening physician–patient trust, improving ethical stability in healthcare institutions, and ensuring culturally sensitive medical care. The findings highlight the importance of enhancing bioethics education, developing institutional ethical mechanisms, and incorporating cultural context into clinical practice. The harmonization of bioethics and national spiritual values is presented as a necessary condition for preserving the humanistic essence of medicine and promoting a fair and patient-centered healthcare system.
