SU-STS115 FinalOutline

> You are asked to provide a brief overview for the hospital administrators regarding the ethics of using the technology. Your overview should include a brief description of your selected technology and an assessment of the potential ethical and social implications of applying that technology to pediatric care in your hospital. Students should apply a specific ethical framework in their discussion of whether to use the innovative technology(from the course readings) as part of their analysis, and give details regarding ethical implications and challenges of the technology. For example, students might discuss how different stakeholders may be impacted (e.g. patients, doctors, communities), any possible unintended consequences, as well as potential approaches for addressing the ethical issues, what mitigations you would recommend, or consider how the benefits of this technology would be shared equitably. While the approaches to the ethical issues will vary depending on the technology, one element that must be in the essay is consideration of what would need to be communicated to the parents/patients for informed consent.
