兽医在比赛期间和比赛之间为运动马提供医疗护理方面发挥着关键作用，但标准客户：存在于同伴和生产动物医学中的兽医关系因第三方参与运动医学而被扭曲，导致明显的伦理困境，值得学术关注。通过比较现有的人类运动医学文献，本文回顾了兽医治疗马术运动员所面临的伦理困境，以及调节者在促成或解决这些困境中的作用。重大的伦理困境发生在比赛之间和比赛期间。这些问题包括责任冲突、客户保密的需要和共享信息以最大化动物福利的需要之间的冲突，以及治疗证据基础的需要。尽管人类和马匹运动医学面临的许多道德问题是相似的，但许可证当局赋予兽医的职责是确保致力于其护理的动物的福利，这要求承担与人类运动医学医生不同的义务。对当前做法的改进建议将有助于解决马术运动医学中的伦理困境，包括加强马匹受伤记录系统，使用专业行为准则和道德准则来建立可接受的应对常见伦理问题的方法，以及坚持马术运动员的治疗是基于证据(尽可能)，而不是经济驱动的。
Veterinarians have a key role in providing medical care for sports horses during and between competitions, but the standard client:veterinarian relationship that exists in companion and production animal medicine is distorted by the involvement of third parties in sports medicine, resulting in distinct ethical dilemmas which warrant focused academic attention. By comparing the existing literature on human sports medicine, this article reviews the ethical dilemmas which face veterinarians treating equine athletes, and the role of regulators in contributing to or resolving those dilemmas. Major ethical dilemmas occur both between and during competitions. These include conflicts of responsibility, conflicts between the need for client confidentiality and the need to share information in order to maximise animal welfare, and the need for an evidence base for treatment. Although many of the ethical problems faced in human and equine sports medicine are similar, the duty conferred upon a veterinarian by the licensing authority to ensure the welfare of animals committed to his or her care requires different obligations to those of a human sports medicine doctor. Suggested improvements to current practice which would help to address ethical dilemmas in equine sports medicine include an enhanced system for recording equine injuries, the use of professional Codes of Conduct and Codes of Ethics to establish acceptable responses to common ethical problems, and insistence that treatment of equine athletes is evidence-based (so far as possible) rather than economics-driven.
