From applied ethics to innovation practice: An ethics-by-design approach for constructive consideration of Elsi in technological design decisions
The manifold ethical, legal, and societal implications (ELSI) of new and emerging technologies are often elicited and dealt with too late in the innovation process which creates severe challenges and risks for regulators, appliers, and users as well as society as a whole. We conceptualised an ethics-by-design approach that allows innovators to incorporate normative reflections into their designs, translate ethical commitments into plausible desig…
Building ethical awareness to strengthen co-production for transformation
Awareness of different ethical theories can support transformation-oriented researchers in navigating value-based decisions in co-production. We synthesize and explicitly link the literature on co-production and ethical theories in philosophy to initiate this awareness. Four key decision points in co-production projects are outlined that require value-based actions: (1) what to focus on, (2) who to include, (3) how to co-create and (4) how to con…
Webcam-use in the Nicu-setting from the perspective of Health Care Professionals and its implication for communication with parents
Background In Germany, a growing number of neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) are equipped with webcams. The utilization of webcams in the NICU is gaining greater attention and the impact of this technology can be manifold. However, there has been no definite understanding of its impact. We will highlight the webcam's implications on the communication between parents and Health Care Professionals (HCPs) in German NICUs. Methods 20 interviews w…
Patient Preferences for Long-Term Implant Care in Cochlear, Glaucoma and Cardiovascular Diseases
In the process of developing and implementing innovative implant technologies the consideration of patient preferences can be beneficial for patients, doctors and developers. Nevertheless, in existing literature, there is still scarce knowledge of patients' perspectives on long-term implant care. In this study, three discrete choice experiments (DCEs) were conducted in the context of cochlear implants (CI, n = 92), glaucoma implants (GI, n = 21) …

Health Literacy in the Context of Implant Care—Perspectives of (Prospective) Implant Wearers on Individual and Organisational Factors
The continuous development of medical implants offers various benefits for persons with chronic conditions but also challenges an individual's, and the healthcare system's, ability to deal with technical innovation. Accessing and understanding new information, navigating healthcare, and appraising the role of the implant in body perceptions and everyday life requires health literacy (HL) of those affected as well as an HL-responsive healthcare sy…
Systems medicine 2030: A Delphi study on implementation in the German healthcare system
INTRODUCTION: Systems medicine is based on approaches taken from systems biology, omics research, bio-informatics and network theory. It promises to facilitate a better understanding of the causes of diseases, detection at an earlier stage, and the use of tailor-made approaches to prevention and therapy. This study provides information on how systems medicine could be incorporated into the German healthcare system. METHODS: In a Policy Delphi, co…
Transforming spirituality through aging: Coping and distress in the search for meaning in very old age
Problem-centered interviews were conducted with 20 oldest old (80+ years) and evaluated via qualitative content analysis to answer the research question of how age-and cultural-specific experiences challenge and transform spirituality in oldest age. This study reveals that socio-cultural and age-related changes do not only support a reconsideration of existential questions of life expressed in faith, but also a reevaluation of life, rethinking of…
Attitudes towards Risk Prediction in a Help Seeking Population of Early Detection Centers for Mental Disorders—A Qualitative Approach
Big Data approaches raise hope for a paradigm shift towards illness prevention, while others are concerned about discrimination resulting from these approaches. This will become particularly important for people with mental disorders, as research on medical risk profiles and early detection progresses rapidly. This study aimed to explore views and attitudes towards risk prediction in people who, for the first time, sought help at one of three ear…

Peculiarities of health literacy in people with mental disorders: A cross-sectional study
BACKGROUND: Health literacy (HL) is considered a key concept to positively address relevant decisions concerning physical and mental health. According to an integrated model of a European Consortium, the process to access, understand, appraise and apply health information is at the centre of practising HL. AIM: In this study, we examine HL in a population with an early onset of a mental disorder (MD). METHODS: = 310) who sought help at an early d…
Gender-Specific Aspects of Health Literacy: Perceptions of Interactions with Migrants among Health Care Providers in Germany
Health literacy can be described as a complex process shaped by individual resources and preferences and by the nature and quality of health-related information people encounter. The main objective of this study was to explore the views of health care professionals on how gender as a personal determinant of health literacy affected their interactions with migrant patients. The interrelated challenges, needs and applied solutions were analyzed fro…
Health Literacy as Communicative Action—A Qualitative Study among Persons at Risk in the Context of Predictive and Preventive Medicine
Predictive and preventive medicine play an increasingly important role in public debates on health, providing cutting-edge technologies with the potential to measure and predict individual risks of getting ill. This leads to an ever-expanding definitional space between being "healthy" and being "ill", challenging the individual's everyday life, attitudes and perceptions towards the self and the process of health-related decision-making. "How do t…
