Nuremberg Code

The Nuremberg Code is a crucial document in the development of research ethics. In Nuremberg, Germany, fifty years ago, American judges judged those accused of participating in a cruel and painful human experiment by Nazi physicians. This guideline acts as a guide to protect each participant's rights in medical research. It contains eight principles that address the security of each participant. These are the 10 Principles of the Nuremberg code 1. A person engaged must be of legal age to agree and be able to make decisions freely without coercion, fraud, or other unlawful means. 2. Must have a significant influence on society 3. Plan the experiment and make sure it's secure. 4. There should be no physical or mental suffering during the experiment. 5. If an experiment has the potential to cause injury or death, it should not be executed. 6. The pain level should be at most what the participants can handle. 7. A thorough preparation is required. There should be sufficient facilities to safeguard and guarantee the safety of participants. 8. A certified specialist should carry out the study. 9. The participant can stop the study if they believe it would harm them in any way. 10. The scientist or researcher should stop the study if the participants feel uncomfortable.
