Abstract
One of the oldest codes - Hammurabi's Code - available in the field of medicine contains descriptions of the duties of physicians and heavy penalties for their neglect. Albeit, religious books have pointed out these issues as needed. Among these, the text of Avesta pays particular attention to physicians and their duties, and was one of the sources of inspiration for medical laws at its time. In the text, it is stated that physicians were selected from members of the clergy, and surgeons had to perform three surgeries on non-Zoroastrians who believed in Ahura Mazda. If this requirement was not achieved, they would lose their right to surgery or practice, but if successful, they could operate on the followers of Ahura Mazda without fear. Here we intend to discuss the laws and ethics of ancient Iran and the rights and duties of the physicians by exploring the literature of the time.

Abstract
In order to achieve teamwork-based and integrated care, one of the issues in health care is the implementation of ethics and values in teamwork. The aim of this study is to develop the interprofessional collaborative ethics framework.This cross sectional study was conducted in two phases. In phase one, core competencies of the interprofessional collaborative ethics were determined by literature review. In phase two, Delphi rounds of experts were undertaken to validate the competencies and calculate content validity indexes through Content Validity Ratio (CVR) and Content Validity Index (CVI).The interviews and Delphi rounds identified 12 competencies categorized in three core themes including patient-centered values, interprofessional collaborative ethics, and team-based values. In phase two, based on the mean scores of importance, utility, and clarity, patient center value (4.9), interprofessional ethics competencies (4.6), and team-based values (4.5) were determined as essential themes.In conclusion, the validation of the inter-professional ethics framework was found to be acceptable in the Iranian context. Therefore, the framework for teaching and evaluating inter-professional ethical competencies is an applicable tool in the Iranian context.

Abstract
Ethics is important in all professions, particularly in nursing, since morality and commitment in nurses can play a significant role in improving patients’ health and recovery. The nursing profession is therefore rooted in ethics, and the observance of nursing ethics is more important than other aspects of health care. This study aimed to determine patient's views on standards of professional ethics in nursing practice in Imam Hussain Hospital during 2015.
This was a cross-sectional study conducted on 575 patients in different wards of Imam Hussein Hospital in Shahroud. Research instrument was a 22-item questionnaire designed by the researchers to evaluate nurses’ observance of professional ethics in the three dimensions of accountability, improvement of care quality, and respect for patients. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 20 software.
The mean age of participants in this study was 51.32 (± 19.03), and 299 participants (52%) were male. The mean total score of professionalism was 18.38 (± 2.74), and the relationship between age and observance of professional ethics was statistically significant (P = 0.006).
According to the subjects of this study, the nurses’ observance of professional ethics was relatively good and at a desirable level. It is recommended to utilize a variety of learning styles and employ the services of professors of nursing ethics in order to enhance the quality of nursing education with respect to professional ethics.
