Health technology can affect healthcare in many ways, including on social, ethical, legal and other systems. When we assess a health care technology, we should include an ethical assessment of that technology.
By doing a bit of research, find a new advance in healthcare that is based on health technology.
Describe the technological advance in health that you found. Who does the new technological advance in healthcare help and what does it do?
Choose one of the principles of biomedical ethics (autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, or justice-discussed earlier in the textbook). Discuss how an ethical concern related to that principle might arise from the technological advance in healthcare you have researched.
