The current situation of medical ethics and bioethics in Ecuador highlights the need to address the complexity of decision-making in the field of health. Under a neutrosophic approach, the situation of medical ethics and bioethics in Ecuador was explored to define the neutrosophic subsets of elements that affect the formation of values and the development of medical ethics and bioethics in Ecuador. The results reveal the need for training health professionals in issues of medical ethics and bioethics. Therefore, projects and study plans that respond to the promotion of effective ethical practices must be approved. Without leaving aside the fact that supervision and accountability mechanisms must be created to guarantee compliance with ethical and bioethical principles among health professionals. Furthermore, the need for constant evaluation is highlighted to ensure that ethical policies evolve and adjust to changing values and objectives. In conclusion, the neutrosophic approach provides a holistic and adaptable perspective to address medical ethics and bioethics in Ecuador, by recognizing indeterminacies and promoting effective ethical practices.
