Resumo

Abstract The new Medical Code of Ethics entered into force in 2019, with the Resolution CFM 2.217/2018. This article focusses on the directives of this document, seeking to identify if they reflect changes in the Society and how the ethical concepts taught during training impact the professional practice. Of qualitative character of primary and secondary data, the sample comprised 15 semi-structured interviews selected with by snowball sampling. The participants are doctors of the residency program of the Complex of the Clinical Hospital of the Federal University of Paraná. We understood that the precepts of the code adhere to human rights and to bioethics. Furthermore, the ethics taught during training was insufficient for the professionals. We concluded that, for having force of law and being based on moral principles, the Medical Code of Ethics fosters the normalization of the medical action; however, a medical conduct based on the ethical directives requires a professional update.
