Area of Science:

  • Nursing Ethics
  • Digital Health
  • Philosophy of Technology

Background:

  • Digital infrastructures (platforms, AI) are transforming nursing care delivery.
  • This transformation raises ethical concerns beyond mere efficiency.
  • Current frameworks inadequately address relational injuries caused by digital technologies in nursing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and define the concept of digital-relational harm.
  • To analyze how digital infrastructures disrupt the relational foundations of ethical nursing.
  • To reframe digital transformation in nursing as a relational and ethical challenge.

Main Methods:

  • Drawing on six philosophical and theoretical traditions: African relational ontology, Western phenomenology and care ethics, Eastern relational philosophies, relational ethics, Labour Process Theory, and digital professionalism.
  • Analyzing disruptions caused by digital infrastructures in nursing care.
  • Developing a conceptual framework for understanding digital-relational harm.

Main Results:

  • Digital infrastructures disrupt person becoming, embodied presence, and relational harmony.
  • Trust, mutuality, labor continuity, and professional identity are eroded by digital systems.
  • Digital-relational harm is identified as a structural, relational, and ontological issue.

Conclusions:

  • Digital transformation in nursing presents significant ethical and relational challenges.
  • Safeguarding relational integrity is crucial in the design and governance of digital health systems.
  • Digital-relational harm provides a new analytic lens for nursing ethics in digital environments.
