Ethical obstacles in health systems research in India: need for focused guidelines
This paper focuses on the ethical tensions seen in health systems research by researchers owing to their scientific obligations to their research, ethical obligations to study participants, and social obligations to the community. Health systems research differs from other public health research fields in terms of the participants selected, power relations within health systems and the sociopolitical environment. The study seeks to answer the following questions through experiences in health system research. 1. What are the ethical tensions experienced by researchers in field work? 2. How are the existing guidelines used in resolving tensions arising in field work in India? To understand these ethical tensions, the World Health Organization’s Ethical Considerations for Health Policy and Systems Research were applied to research conducted in the health system settings. These tensions faced by researchers are explained through four emerging themes: the researcher’s position in the health system; voluntariness of participation: participation; and social justice.
期刊介绍:
The Indian Journal of Medical Ethics (formerly Issues in Medical Ethics) is a platform for discussion on health care ethics with special reference to the problems of developing countries like India. It hopes to involve all cadres of, and beneficiaries from, this system, and strengthen the hands of those with ethical values and concern for the under-privileged. The journal is owned and published by the Forum for Medical Ethics Society, a not-for-profit, voluntary organisation. The FMES was born out of an effort by a group of concerned doctors to focus attention on the need for ethical norms and practices in health care.
