Abstract
"During the course of human history, children and adolescents have oftn been the victis of science in clinical studies. When society was confronted with the horrors of the experiments conducted during World War II, it issued the Nuremberg Code, excluding minors from any such studies as they lack the competence to give autonomous consent. This permanent requirement of the code has resulted in therapeuti orphanhood for many aggravatins of the health status of this populatin. Those who care for children and adolescents now face a dilemma: on one hand, they defend special protectin for the group, but on the other, they work to not exclude them from the benefis that science and technology has to offr. Therefore an effrt to balance these conflctig principles has emerged through the development of standards and guidelines for such special pro- tectin. The purpose of this artile is to discuss those guidelines."
