Aspectos bioéticos da autonomia do idoso

Abstract: ResumoCom base em uma revisão narrativa, este estudo visa descrever os aspectos bioéticos envolvidos na autonomia de idosos. O levantamento bibliográfico foi realizado a partir da produção registrada nas bases Biblioteca Cochrane, SciELO, Medline, Ibecs, Lilacs e em livros voltados ao tema. Considera-se significativa esta reflexão, haja vista que o número de idosos tem crescido aceleradamente nos últimos anos e os estudos têm demonstrado que este aumento associa-se, concomitantemente, à ausência do respeito à … Show more

“…Some studies highlight which factors may be associated with the increased fragility of the elderly, such as limited access to public services, low level of education, socioeconomic status, and living in environments of greater vulnerability. (14,15,(18)(19)(20) In the present study, elderly people with low socioeconomic and low educational levels were included, and these factors did not influence the patients' decision-making ability. The issue of access to public services and living in vulnerable environments was not assessed.…”

“…This type of behavior impairs the right to autonomy of the elderly. (20) The principle of autonomy presupposes that the individual is self-governing and autonomous, both in his choices and in his actions. (21)(22)(23)(24) From a bioethical point of view, the physician-patient relationship has three distinct characters: the physician, the patient and the society, each one with specific moral meaning: the patient is guided by the principle of autonomy, the physician by that of beneficence (primun, non nocere), and society by justice.…”

“…Autonomy can be understood as a capacity to govern itself 8 , but this right is not always respected, although it is ensured by the Brazilian Constitution 9 and included in the Human Rights of the United Nations (UN). This is evidenced in the large number of research on the subject, with data that become more critical when it comes to the autonomy of vulnerable groups, such as the elderly 10 .…”

“…É dever dos profissionais da saúde e dos familiares contribuir para o desenvolvimento da autonomia do paciente idoso, incentivando-o a tomar decisões e a ter iniciativa nas questões relativas à higiene, saúde, ocupação, relacionamentos, mesmo quando se observa a diminuição das capacidades e habilidades da pessoa idosa (SAQUETTO et al, 2013). Observa-se que o não envolvimento do paciente idoso no tratamento tem efeito contrário ao esperado, pois chancela uma sensação de incapacidade e de apatia prejudiciais ao próprio processo Quaestio Iuris vol.…”
