Patienten-Empowerment

Patienten-Empowerment hat das Ziel, die Stellung des Patienten durch Information, Mitwirkung und Mitentscheidung zu verbessern. Einer Implementierung in der Praxis stehen jedoch vermutlich auf beiden Seiten nach wie vor hohe Barrieren entgegen.

Abstract

Patient Empowerment means the providing of information regarding therapeutic options so that a patient can actively participate in the decision on diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Presumably the challenge is to put this concept into practice.
