  1. Dealing with In/dependence: Doctoring in Physical Rehabilitation Practice.Tsjalling Swierstra, Annemarie Mol & Rita Struhkamp - 2009 - Science, Technology, and Human Values 34 (1):55-76.
    By now, the laboratory tradition, crafting transportable knowledge that allows for comparison, has been amply studied. However, other knowledge traditions, notably that of the clinic, deserve further articulation. The authors contribute to this by unraveling some specificities of rehabilitation practice. How do laboratory and clinical traditions in rehabilitation relate to independence? The first seeks to quantify people's independence; the latter attends to qualitatively different ways of being independent. While measuring independence is a matter of aggregating scores on a priori established (...)

  • How to Make Your Relationship Work? Aesthetic Relations with Technology.Jeannette Pols - 2017 - Foundations of Science 22 (2):421-424.
    Discussing the workings of technology in care as aesthetic rather than as ethical or epistemological interventions focusses on how technologies engage in and change relations between those involved. Such an aesthetic study opens up a repertoire to address values that are abundant in care, but are as yet hardly theorized. Kamphof studies the problem that sensor technology reveals things about the elderly patients without the patients being aware of this. I suggest improvement of these relations may be considered in aesthetic (...)

  • Care as a mutual endeavour: Experiences of a multiple sclerosis patient and her healthcare professionals. [REVIEW]Barth Oeseburg & Tineke A. Abma - 2006 - Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy 9 (3):349-357.
    In Dutch healthcare policy patients are seen as informed, autonomous experts and active decision makers with control over their illness and care. Healthcare professionals are expected to operate as providers of information. The purpose of this article is to argue that the consumerist approach of the patient–professional relationship is not a productive way to envision the patient–professional relationship. We argue that an interpretive/deliberative model is a more productive way to envision this relationship, especially in the care for people with a (...)

  • Justifying patient self-management – evidence based medicine or the primacy of the first person perspective.Søren Holm - 2005 - Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy 8 (2):159-164.
    Patient self-management programs have become increasingly popular and are now also receiving official endorsements. This paper analyses two possible types of positive justifications for promoting patient self-management: evidence-based and patient-centred justifications. It is argued that evidence-based justifications, although important politically are deficient and that the primary justification for patient self-management must be a patient-centred justification focusing on the patient’s privileged access to his or her own lived body.

  • Self‐care as care left undone? The ethics of the self‐care agenda in contemporary healthcare policy.Anna-Marie Greaney & Sinead Flaherty - 2020 - Nursing Philosophy 21 (1):e12291.
    Self‐care, or self‐management, is presented in healthcare policy as a precursor to patient empowerment and improved patient outcomes. Alternatively, critiques of the self‐care agenda suggest that it represents an over‐reliance on individual autonomy and responsibility, without adequate support, whereby ‘self‐care’ is potentially unachievable and becomes ‘care left undone’. In this sense, self‐care contributes to a blame culture where ill‐health is attributed to personal behaviours or lack thereof. Furthermore, self‐care may represent a covert form of rationing, as the fiscal means to (...)

  • What deserves our respect? Reexamination of respect for autonomy in the context of the management of chronic conditions.Aya Enzo, Taketoshi Okita & Atsushi Asai - 2019 - Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy 22 (1):85-94.
    The global increase in patients with chronic conditions has led to increased interest in ethical issues regarding such conditions. A basic biomedical principle—respect for autonomy—is being reexamined more critically in its clinical implications. New accounts of this basic principle are being proposed. While new accounts of respect for autonomy do underpin the design of many public programs and policies worldwide, addressing both chronic disease management and health promotion, the risk of applying such new accounts to clinical setting remain understudied. However, (...)

  • ‘Holding on to life’: An ethnographic study of living well at home in old age.Kristin Bjornsdottir - 2018 - Nursing Inquiry 25 (2):e12228.
    In recent years, much attention has been paid to how older people living at home can remain independent and manage their illness themselves, while less attention has been given to those who have become frail and need assistance with challenges of everyday life. In this article, I drew on Latimer's formulation of care for frail older people as relational and world‐making and on Foucault's work related to the care of the self in developing an understanding of how frail older persons (...)
