In its most trending interpretation, empowerment in health care is implemented as a patient-centered approach. the same sense, many mobile (mHealth) apps are being developed with primary focus on individual user. The integration of mHealth into system has potential to counteract existing challenges, including incomplete or nonstandardized medical data and lack communication, especially intersectional context (eg, patients, forces). However, concerns about security privacy, regional...

Recent years have witnessed intensive efforts to specify which requirements ethical artificial intelligence (AI) must meet. General guidelines for AI consider a varying number of principles important. A frequent novel element in these guidelines, that we bundled together under the term explicability, aims reduce black-box character machine learning algorithms. The centrality this invites reflection on conceptual relation between explicability and four bioethical principles. This is important...
Abstract Introduction Post-operative delirium (POD) is a common complication in older patients, with an incidence of 14–56%. To implement preventative procedures, it necessary to identify patients at risk for POD. In the present study, we aimed develop machine learning (ML) model POD prediction close cooperation PAWEL (patient safety, cost-effectiveness and quality life elective surgery) project. Methods The was trained on study’s dataset 878 (no intervention, age ≥ 70, 209 POD). Presence...
What people value today can differ from what they have valued. But does this variability mean in the context of healthcare? We ethically analyze current state research on change embedded values healthcare systems and driving processes behind it. Starting with a systematic literature review content analysis, we subject selected articles to an ethical analysis through three theories: principlism, ethics, utilitarianism. The included papers demonstrated how moral dissonance between individual...
Background: Atrial fibrillation is the most common persistent arrhythmia. It associated with increased mortality and morbidity such as stroke. The early detection of atrial can significantly reduce risk stroke through preventive anticoagulation. Smartwatches offer opportunity to screen for in general population. This paper aims analyze ethical challenges screening using smartwatches. Methods: an analysis. methodology based on principle-orientated approach Beauchamp Childress. principles...
Climate change, pollution, and deforestation have a negative impact on global mental health. There is an environmental justice dimension to this challenge as wealthy people high-income countries are major contributors climate change while poor low-income heavily affected by the consequences. Using state-of-the art data mining, we analyzed visualized research landscape health, pollution over 15-year period. Metadata of papers were exported from PubMed®, both relevance relatedness terms in...
Transgender individuals experience limited access to healthcare. This results not least from experiences of discrimination which they are exposed in the health system. These contribute transgender having poorer than cis individuals, i.e. whose sex assigned at birth is line with their gender identity. It an ethical duty take effective measures minimize inequalities medical care. At best, such should also be assessed as appropriate perspective those affected order accepted and thus effective....
Everyday clinical practice requires knowledge of medical ethics and the taking moral positions.

Data were collected from September November 2010.There was much uncertainty among respondents about relevant for decisions implementation existing...

Abstract The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic constitutes not only a danger for public health, but may also threaten civil liberties. Looking at the examples of recent events in Poland and Hungary, authors argue that governments misuse their political advantage, thus endangering health. Political decisions taken to stem spread pandemics should be limited strictly proportionate situation.
Abstract The notion of being a burden to others is mostly discussed in the context care‐intensive diseases or end‐of‐life decisions. But also crucial decision‐making at beginning life, namely regarding prenatal testing. Ever more sophisticated testing methods, especially non‐invasive ( NIPT ), allow detection genetic traits unborn child that may cause disabilities. A positive result often influences decision pregnant women towards termination pregnancy. Thus, critics claim these methods send...
The method of diagnosing diabetic retinopathy (DR) through artificial intelligence (AI)-based systems has been commercially available since 2018. This introduces new ethical challenges with regard to obtaining informed consent from patients. purpose this work is develop a checklist items be disclosed when DR AI in primary care setting.
Introduction Geriatric co-management is known to improve treatment of older adults in various clinical settings, however, widespread application the concept limited due restricted resources. Digitalization may offer options overcome these shortages by providing structured, relevant information and decision support tools for medical professionals. We present SURGE-Ahead project (Supporting SURgery with GEriatric Artificial Intelligence) addressing this challenge. Methods A digital a...
There have been different initiatives for the implementation of clinical ethics consultation during past years. The present study surveys current data.A structured questionnaire was used. Of 1,858 contacted hospitals throughout Germany 550 answered to that (return rate 29,6 %). survey took place between September 2013 and January 2014.The committee is mostly implemented structure consultation. Recommendations implement those structures (ZEKO 2006, AEM 2010) show less influence than legally...
Biomarker-based predictive tests for subjectively asymptomatic Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are utilized in research today. Novel applications of artificial intelligence (AI) promise to predict the onset AD several years advance without determining biomarker thresholds. Until now, little attention has been paid new ethical challenges that AI brings early diagnosis individuals, beyond contributing purposes, when we still lack adequate treatment. The aim this paper is explore arguments put forward...
