Background: Since its inception, the field of health technology assessment (HTA) has stressed need for consideration ethical and social issues. However, few concepts or analytic tools have been developed, because complexity endeavor a lack integration work already produced, such remain difficult to apply in HTA. Objectives: Through descriptive “map” concepts, tools, processes, we summarize most tangible efforts on part HTA producers address Methods: A literature review content analysis...
Social, ethical and policy analysis of the issues arising from gene patenting commercial genetic testing is enhanced by application science technology studies, Actor-Network Theory (ANT) in particular. We suggest potential for transferring ANT's flexible nature to an applied heuristic methodology gathering empirical information analysing complex networks involved development technologies. Three concepts are explored this paper--actor-networks, translation, drift--and case Myriad Genetics...
This essay is based on the recognition that current ‘downstream’ health services research and policy approach to innovation misses mark one crucial point. It has not addressed how promote design of innovations are likely be more valuable than others. Re-visiting ways in which could inform processes, this paper suggests three attributes make especially compelling from a care system perspective: relevance; usability; sustainability. These used as starting point for outlining policy-oriented...
A subcategory of medical tourism, reproductive tourism has been the subject much public and policy debate in recent years. Specific concerns include: exploitation individuals communities, access to needed health care services, fair allocation limited resources, quality safety services provided by private clinics. To date, focus attention on thriving sectors Asia Eastern Europe; there less consideration given more 'players' Latin America, notably fertility clinics Chile, Brazil, Mexico...
Purpose: The recent introduction of master's level curricula for Occupational Therapy (OT) and Physiotherapy (PT) training programs in Canada raises both challenges opportunities to address ethical issues during professional training. This study evaluated the inclusion ethics content course descriptions calendars order develop a preliminary understanding how rehabilitation is taught Canadian universities. Method: We reviewed online 27 (OT & PT). Courses addressing were identified through...
The Internet has become a ‘global marketplace’, enabling consumers to purchase health care products and services, including genetic testing, through variety of national international sources. A web search for commercial (for-profit) testing companies found 12 with presence that were offering adult susceptibility which 3 offered direct-to-consumer access. In this paper, Canada – its educated population universal system will serve as case study illustrating the social, ethical policy issues...
ABSTRACT A rich literature in public health has demonstrated that is strongly influenced by a host of environmental factors can vary according to social, economic, geographic, cultural or physical contexts. Bioethicists should, we argue, recognize this and – where appropriate work integrate concerns into their field study ethical deliberations. In article, present an argument grounded scientific research at the molecular level will be familiar so hopefully more persuasive for...
Surveillance programs supporting the management of One Health issues such as antibiotic resistance are complex systems in themselves. Designing ethical surveillance is thus a task (retroactive and iterative), yet one that also complicated to implement evaluate (e.g., sharing, collaboration, governance). The governance health requires attention concerns about data knowledge performance, trust, accountability, transparency) empowerment ethics, referred form responsible self-governance. Ethics...
L’idée d’une gouvernance collaborative gagne en popularité. Cependant, comment être véritablement collaboratif ? Les systèmes de prises décision diversifiés intervenants doivent composer avec des parties prenantes aux positions, rôles, intérêts, missions, observations et valeurs différents. Par sa formule facile d’utilisation pour les éthicien·ne·s professionnel·le·s, l’outil bioéthique co P·R·I·M·O·V ( Position, Rôle, Intérêt, Mission, Observation, Valeurs ) vise à améliorer la pratique...
A recent addition to the debate about benefits and harms of direct-to-consumer (DTC) advertising medicines pharmaceuticals is a growing critique DTC marketing sale genetic tests. Academic policy literatures exploring this issue have, however, tended focus on tests, paying rather less attention particular implications advertising. The globalization broadcast media ever increasing access Internet mean that public exposure for medical technologies reality national regulatory bodies will be hard...
There has been debate on whether a global or unified field of bioethics exists. If is field, at the very least closely shared way thinking, then we should expect bioethicists to behave same in their academic activities anywhere world. This paper investigates there 'global bioethics' sense community. To address this question, study web-linking patterns institutions, citation papers and buying books. All three analyses indicate that are geographical institutional differences behavior...
