Digital Ethics in Nursing: A Scoping Review

Abstract

Digital technologies present several potential ethical implications at the (a) individual levels, affecting nurses and patients, and (b) collective levels, impacting all nurses, health systems, and citizens. Increasing awareness and knowledge, and developing guidelines specific to nursing, should be a priority to prevent and minimize risks. Codes of conduct should address these emerging issues and promote the ethical use of digital tools. Audits and monitoring systems should be established to detect additional risks and address them appropriately.
