Sumario:The article describes and analyses the General Principles of the 2022 Code of Medical Ethics that are included in the articles 4 to 6 of the second chapter. The General Principles make it possible to understand and interpret the set of precepts and recommendations of the code, for which reason the study of this second chapter is of special relevance. In addition, I contextualize General Principles by relating them to other current international ethical-deontological documents. We will also review how they are extended in the broad articles of the new code. We will observe that there is a clear relationship between the General Principles of the new code with respect to previous Spanish Medical Codes, which is logical since they gather permanent values of Medical Ethics. In the General Principles is proposed that each doctor is at the service of the human being and of society and has as primary duties, respect for human life, dignity of each person, as well as the health care of the individual and the society (Article 4.1).
