Abstract
Medicine can often cause unnecessary harm to people while trying to treat them, but this phenomenon, known as iatrogenesis, is rarely debated. The author of this article argues that nurses have a responsibility to consider the concept of iatrogenesis and its effects on the health of their patients.Keywords
