Abstract:
This essay is comparing the different perspectives of the debate on surrogacy in two Swedish Newspapers. The purpose of this study is to contribute with knowledge about the different perspectives of the debate about surrogacy in relation to women's autonomy. The theory is defined by decisional autonomy and practical autonomy, which is written by Jonathan Pugh. Through an idea analysis, the material of the essay is analyzed through an analysis tool created with Pugh’s theory. The delimitation of material is selected from articles from Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet between 2010 and 2020.

Abstract:
New methods of fetal anomaly detection will offer increasingly detailed information to prospective parents but are likely to lead to more frequent discovery of anomalies with an ambiguous prognosis for the future child. It is important to consider the ethical implications of such ambiguity prior to introducing new tests. An examination of the bioethics literature reveals 'promoting autonomy' as the predominant justification for fetal anomaly detection. Two questions arise: does the fetal anomaly detection programme as it stands promote autonomy, and is 'promoting autonomy' an appropriate ethic

Abstract:
The principle of autonomy allows each person control over his or her body, and, consequently, to decide what medical treatment he or she will accept or refuse. However, where the individual does not have the ability, or capacity, to make such a decision, they may be subjected to medical treatment carried out in what a substitute decision-maker perceives to be their "best interests", which may not conform to their previous wishes that were reached autonomously. In order to preserve autonomy in the anticipation of a lack of capacity, individuals can formalise their health care plans in documents

Abstract:
Advance decisions to refuse medical treatment (“ADRTs”) have been recognised in English law through a series of cases which arose at the end of the Twentieth Century and subsequently by the Mental Capacity Act 2005. ADRTs allow adults, with the requisite mental capacity, to refuse forms of medical treatment that they anticipate being provided with at a time when they have lost mental capacity in respect of the anticipated treatment. The most frequently advanced argument for the recognition of these instruments is to respect and extend personal autonomy and/or self-determination. However, this

<p>The intimate connection between autonomy and decision-making in applied health care, especially in various kinds of consent and refusal has taken center stage in medical ethics since the Salgo decision in 1957.

The Salgo decision concluded that physicians have a legal duty to provide facts necessary for the patient to make an informed decision.

The presumption is also that the adaptive preference signifies an absence of autonomy.

Abstract:
Over the last few years, policies have been introduced in the UK which aim to improve organ transplantation rates by changing the way that potential organ donors are treated before death. Patients incapacitated due to catastrophic brain injury may now undergo ante-mortem donor optimisation procedures to facilitate deceased organ donation. As I identify in this thesis, the most significant ethical and legal problem with these policies is that they are not based on what the patient would have chosen for themselves in the specific circumstances. The policies identify and treat patients meeting ce

Abstract:
This thesis examines from a socio-bioethical perspective British premenopausal cancer patients’ experiences with making oncofertility decisions. It uses original empirical research into the experiences of a small group of patients to address social, clinical and ethical concerns about how patients make decisions in the medical context. Several North American studies have noted that the ways in which cancer and fertility concerns are addressed in the medical context may affect patient decision-making. This thesis focuses specifically on how these experiences are influenced by the medical encoun

Abstract:
Ces dernières années, les engins robotisés n’ont cessé d’améliorer leur autonomie dans le domaine de la décision. Désormais, pour ne citer que l’exemple de véhicules aériens, nombre de drones sont largement capables, sans intervention d’un opérateur humain, de décoller, suivre un itinéraire en activant divers capteurs à des moments précis, atterrir en un lieu spécifié, suivre une cible, patrouiller sur une zone... Une des étapes suivantes consiste à faire collaborer une équipe de véhicules autonomes, de nature hétérogène (aériens, terrestres, marins...) afin de leur permettre d’accomplir des m

Les robots modernes sont appelés à effectuer des opérations ou tâches complexes et la capacité de navigation autonome dans un environnement dynamique est un besoin essentiel pour les robots mobiles. Dans l’objectif de soulager de la fastidieuse tâche de préprogrammer un robot manuellement, cette thèse contribue à la conception de commande intelligente afin de réaliser l’apprentissage des robots mobiles durant la navigation autonome. D’abord, nous considérons l’apprentissage des robots via des démonstrations d’experts. Nous proposons d’utiliser un réseau de neurones pour apprendre hors-ligne un

Longtemps délaissé par les différents législateurs européens, le droit des incapacités fait l'objet d'une toute nouvelle attention depuis la fin des années 1990. Sous l'influence du Conseil de l'Europe, la France a entrepris des réformes qui se veulent davantage humanistes. Ces nouveaux textes doivent permettre de protéger les personnes les plus vulnérables tout en garantissant l'exercice de leur droit au respect de la vie privée et familiale. Ce double objectif peut sembler à la fois utopique et contradictoire, puisque toutes les mesures de protection entrainent des restrictions de la capacit

Abstract:
Abstract As mobile Internet access traffic continues to grow at an explosive rate and wireless networks continue to diverge into multiple access technologies with partly overlapping sets of features, new solutions for efficient use of these networks are vital. Cognitive network management provides tools to tackle this challenge by automatically learning from past experience the characteristics and usage patterns of the connected devices, thus enabling autonomic optimization of those connections. Cognitive network management requires a vast amount of information in order to function effectively

The question ofeuthanasia may be relevant in the various cases where patients suffer and experienceunnecessary pain due to various diseases.

<p>Vi fattar dagligen beslut. Ungdomar har mindre möjlighet än vuxna att fatta självständiga beslut. Ungdomar påverkas av sina föräldrar och vänner när de står inför olika val. När ungdomar väl fattar självständiga beslut så utvecklas de psykologiskt. Syftet med studien var att se hur ungdomars tilltro till den egna förmågan, öppenhet, autonomi och föräldrars stöd påverkar deras nöjdhet med beslut som de tidigare har fattat inom ett av tre områden: utbildning, träning eller konsumtion. 120 enkäter delades ut till gymnasieelever och 92 enkäter besvarades.

As Testemunhas de Jeová têm preceitos religiosos que sustentam a recusa da transfusão de sangue e, frequentemente, vivenciam situações nas quais essa recusa pode ser sustentada por aspectos científicos, legais e bioéticos. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a relação médico-paciente Testemunha de Jeová, sob a potencial recomendação de transfusão de sangue durante a internação hospitalar.
