Resumen

ELIO-CALVO, Daniel. BIOMEDICAL AND BIOSYCHOSOCIAL MODELS IN MEDICINE. Rev. Méd. La Paz [online]. 2023, vol.29, n.2, pp.112-117.  Epub 30-Dic-2023. ISSN 1726-8958.

The concept of models in medical science and practice is introduced. Two current models in contemporary medicine are analyzed: the “biomedical” model (MBM), currently predominant, and the bio-psycho-social model (MBPS), which questions the reductionism of the former. The history and conceptual content of both are reviewed. The “general systems theory” is reviewed as a reference for both models. The “patient-centered model” is introduced as a dialogic practice.

Palabras clave : philosophy and medicine; health and disease; medical models; biomedical model; bio-psico-social model.
