    Human rights in health / why patient rights?
    (2021) Sert, Gurkan; Karatas, Mehmet
    Patient rights aim to protect human rights while benefiting from health services. In the statements made about patient rights, attention is paid to the connections of these rights with human rights. Since it is a topic with such intensive relations with human rights, the discussion of whether human rights will be sufficient to protect the rights of individuals benefiting from health services without the "patient rights" subtitle comes to mind. If patient rights are "reflection and extension of human rights" in the field of health; Is it not possible to protect these rights directly only under human rights? Why is the patient rights title needed? What is the benefit in addressing these rights under a separate heading? Answering their questions will provide an important step in the answer to the question of why the topic of patient rights is included under the heading of human rights. In our article, attention has been drawn to the fundamentals and importance of the rights of individuals benefiting from healthcare services in the subtitles of human rights, based on different discussions, both in terms of human rights and freedoms and ethically. The approaches of countries in the world about patient rights could be explained in detail. There has been an important study expressing the basic philosophical state of patient rights.

    (Univ Chile, Centro Interdisciplinario Estudios Bioetica, 2022) Sert, Gurkan; Torun, Serap; Karatas, Mehmet; Gozderesi, Yakup; Okuyaz, Selda; Yalcin, Sibel Oner; Yildirim, Gulay
    The aim of this study is to determine the problems faced by individuals living with cancer (ILCs) in accessing health services during the COVID-19 pandemic in Turkey. This qualitative study's sample consisted of 18 volunteer interviewees from 10 cancer-related patient associations in Turkey. Research data were collected by semi-structured interview method. Data collection and analysis were carried out simultaneously. In the sessions where all researchers participated together, the data were coded with a common view, and main and sub-themes were determined. In die analysis of the data the inductive thematic analysis method was applied. Information was gathered under two main themes: compliance with the measures taken and access to health services. Lack of information about nutrition, physical activity, psychological problems, caused by the lockdown and social distance measures taken within the scope of the pandemic should be accepted as problems within the scope of the right of individuals to access health, and additional programs should be prepared to minimize these. Cancer types should be considered in delaying diagnosis, treatment, and controls related to cancer, so that patients are not harmed at least or at all. It is important to ensure that patients do not hesitate to attend diagnosis, treatment, and controls with the anxiety of being infected with COVID-19, both in transportation to health facilities and in terms of preventing transmission in health facilities.
