Health research and the experience of care

Improve questions and methods about health, care and AI through the perspectives of patients, carers, researchers and qualified practitioners.

Values proposed for this field

The person in context: Research questions should attend to what matters to the people affected, including their circumstances, priorities and experience of care.; A measurable improvement can leave a person's central concern unaddressed. Their account can change which outcomes are worth investigating.
Claims with a stated reach: A health-related research claim should describe the question, population, method and conditions its evidence addresses.; Readers need to examine how far a result may apply and which uncertainties a change of context introduces.
Data use with a stated purpose: Proposed uses of personal health information should be considered separately, with understandable scope and a clear account of permission and responsibility.; Participation in one activity should not silently become agreement to unrelated data use or public disclosure.

Revise the profile when affected people identify missing priorities, evidence reveals unequal or unexpected effects, the information-use assumptions fail, or qualified domain review shows that a distinction misrepresents care or research.

These meanings, values and practices can be rewritten. They are an invitation to inquiry, not a ratified constitution or a claim that a community has adopted them.
