  • THE CONCEPT OF AUTONOMY AND THE TRAINING OF HEALTHPROFESSIONALS. THE CASE OF VOLUNTARY INTERRUPTION OF PREGNANCY The work is divided into two sections: the first deals with how complex the term autonomy is; the second relates to medical education and the training on abortion and voluntary interruption of pregnancy. To deal with the issue of autonomy, we try to define it, highlight its importance, broaden the concept, draw up an outline of what can be understood by autonomy in bioethics, and propose relationships between autonomy and voluntary interruption of pregnancy. On the subject of training, the relevance of reason has been highlighted, but it is recalled that human beings are both reason and emotion, and values cannot be left aside. Values influence clinical practice (this has always been the case, but it has been a silent issue), so their relationship with professional norms and standards are analyzed, as well as the implicit values in medical education. In addition, we analyze several moral concepts held by health professionals, their history, and how such concepts relate to abortion.
