Privacy, Policy, and Profits: Survey of Patient Preferences for Research on De-Identified Biosamples
This study aims to identify patient preferences to inform ethical frameworks, policies, and technologies for advancing biobanking and precision medicine while balancing competing objectives and priorities. We surveyed 109 American breast cancer patients in 2022 about conditions for receiving research results, how their biospecimens are used, partnerships between nonprofit health systems and for-profit companies, and the distribution of financial …
Perceived Value of Prenatal Ultrasound Screening: A Survey of Pregnant Women
Pay No Attention to That Man behind the Curtain: An Ethical Analysis of the Monetization of Menstruation App Data
The revelation that menstruation tracking apps share sensitive data with third parties, like Facebook, provoked a sense of violation among users. This case highlights the need to address ethics and governance of health data created outside of traditional healthcare contexts. Commodifying health data breaches trust and entails health and moral risks. Through the metaphor of The Wizard of Oz, we argue that these apps approximate healthcare without …

Respect women, promote health and reduce stigma: Ethical arguments for universal hepatitis C screening in pregnancy
In the USA, there are missed opportunities to diagnose hepatitis C virus (HCV) in pregnancy because screening is currently risk-stratified and thus primarily limited to individuals who disclose history of injection drug use or sexually transmitted infection risks. Over the past decade, the opioid epidemic has dramatically increased incidence of HCV and a feasible, well-tolerated cure was introduced. Considering these developments, recent evidence…
A Small‐Town Heart
Melanie presented at twenty weeks of gestation to an obstetrics clinic in a critical access hospital in rural Vermont. She was excited to undergo routine fetal ultrasonography, but her obstetrician gave her grave news: the ultrasound revealed hypoplastic left heart syndrome, a devastating congenital heart defect. Initially, Melanie agreed in general to pursue surgical care for her fetus—a three‐stage process that has somewhat uncertain results an…
Rethinking “Elective” Procedures for Women's Reproduction during Covid‐19
Common hospital and surgical center responses to the Covid‐19 pandemic included curtailing “elective” procedures, which are typically determined based on implications for physical health and survival. However, in the focus solely on physical health and survival, procedures whose main benefits advance components of well‐being beyond health, including self‐determination, personal security, economic stability, equal respect, and creation of meaningf…
Impact of Hospital Visitor Restrictions on Racial Disparities in Obstetrics
Racial disparities in both obstetrics and COVID-19 are well documented. Troublingly, implicit biases and related testimonial injustice potentiate adverse outcomes for women of color whose voices and concerns have been historically discredited by the medical establishment. In the context of COVID-19, the restriction of hospital visitors for infection prevention and control in a labor and delivery setting may disproportionately burden black women b…
Lost in Translation: The Role of Interpreters on Labor and Delivery
During the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, in-person interpreters have been deemed "nonessential," and thus eliminated to minimize viral exposure and conserve personal protective equipment. Considering alarming patterns of interpreter underuse, we evaluate how substitution for remote modalities (telephone or video) may exacerbate existing inequalities for patients with limited English proficiency. The inherent intimacy, dynamic physicality, and …
HIV-, HBV-, and HCV-Related Information on U.S. Fertility Clinic Websites: A Content Analysis
Purpose: People living with human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B virus, or hepatitis C virus (PLHIV/HBV/HCV) face barriers to assisted reproductive technologies (ART), in part, due to laws and professional regulations mandating dedicated laboratory facilities and storage tanks for reproductive tissue to minimize theoretical risk of cross-contamination. These guidelines greatly increase the expense of providing equal care, however, fertility …
When separation is not the answer: Breastfeeding mothers and infants affected by Covid‐19
The World Health Organization (WHO) has provided detailed guidance on the care of infants of women who are persons under investigation (PUI) or confirmed to have COVID-19. The guidance supports immediate post-partum mother-infant contact and breastfeeding with appropriate respiratory precautions. Although many countries have followed WHO guidance, others have implemented infection prevention and control (IPC) policies that impose varying levels o…
