The field
of nanomedicine is unique and emerging subject. Nanomedicine, as a subject has
taken an abrupt leap in recent years owing to its wide array of application
potential. It has tremendous potential in revolutionize the modern medical
practice. Nevertheless, there is no clear-cut law or medicolegal guidelines as
to address adverse outcomes of this practice except dealing it with the
principles of natural justice. Many countries across the globe do not have a
defined legal procedure to deal with the medicolegal issues arising out of
practice of nanomedicine. One conspicuous observation about the practice of
nanomedicine is so many potential risks, viz. chances of unforeseen risks and
side-effects, absence of a defined regulatory framework and universal ethical
policy, chances of arising legal loopholes during incorporating nanomedicine
into a legal framework, etc. Simultaneously, it may potentially be accompanied
with some medico-legal issues in its application; as the long-term effects and
other unknown outcomes of practice of nanomedicine is yet to be evaluated.
Something being applied to the patient care without the knowledge of its
outcome is certainly warns of potential risks of ethical and medicolegal
issues. Therefore, a thorough research is highly warranted before implementing
nanomedicine into modern day medicine practice. There is a perceivable
information-gap in the viewpoints of specialists from the medical, legal and
ethical aspects the nanomedicine. This presentation is meant for filling-up
information-gap among all its stakeholders across the disciplines.
