目的：社交媒体、网络和移动的技术越来越多地用于医疗保健，并直接支持以患者为中心的护理。患者受益于疾病自我管理工具、与他人的接触和更密切的监测。研究人员通过这些技术研究药物效率，或招募患者进行临床研究。然而，社交媒体中的低沟通障碍，有限的隐私和安全问题导致了道德角度的问题。本文总结了伦理问题时，社会媒体被利用在healthcare contextuals.METHODS：从我们的经验，在社会媒体的研究，我们收集的伦理问题，为选定的社会媒体用例的背景下，以病人为中心的护理。通过收集和分析相关文献，丰富了结果，并进行了讨论和解释IMIA社会媒体工作组的成员。结果：在社会媒体应用程序中最相关的问题是信心和隐私，需要小心保存。医患关系可能会受到双方新的信息增益的影响，因为医疗保健提供者和消费者的私人信息可以通过互联网访问。医生需要确保他们保持私人和专业之间的界限完好无损。除此之外，保留患者匿名引用互联网内容时，是至关重要的research study.CONCLUSION：利用医疗社会媒体在医疗保健应用程序需要仔细思考的角色和责任。在许多情况下，数据和信息的可得性是有用的，但需要防止滥用数据。保护在线用户的隐私和保密性是一个主要问题，并为患者或互联网用户提供表达对数据使用的担忧的手段。
OBJECTIVE: Social media, web and mobile technologies are increasingly used in healthcare and directly support patientcentered care. Patients benefit from disease self-management tools, contact to others, and closer monitoring. Researchers study drug efficiency, or recruit patients for clinical studies via these technologies. However, low communication barriers in socialmedia, limited privacy and security issues lead to problems from an ethical perspective. This paper summarizes the ethical issues to be considered when social media is exploited in healthcare contexts.METHODS: Starting from our experiences in social-media research, we collected ethical issues for selected social-media use cases in the context of patient-centered care. Results were enriched by collecting and analyzing relevant literature and were discussed and interpreted by members of the IMIA Social Media Working Group.RESULTS: Most relevant issues in social-media applications are confidence and privacy that need to be carefully preserved. The patient-physician relationship can suffer from the new information gain on both sides since private information of both healthcare provider and consumer may be accessible through the Internet. Physicians need to ensure they keep the borders between private and professional intact. Beyond, preserving patient anonymity when citing Internet content is crucial for research studies.CONCLUSION: Exploiting medical social-media in healthcare applications requires a careful reflection of roles and responsibilities. Availability of data and information can be useful in many settings, but the abuse of data needs to be prevented. Preserving privacy and confidentiality of online users is a main issue, as well as providing means for patients or Internet users to express concerns on data usage.
