The power of the citizen in digital culture.

Symptoms reported by the patient are generally considered to be of lesser scientific value than objective, measurable data. New digital technologies make it possible to record sensations that have always been expressed through the lens of subjectivity, such as mood, cognitive activity and neuroendocrine activity. The patient's access to biological and behavioral parameters and the possibility of acquiring them directly, independently and autonomously, allow people to actively participate in their own care process and in maintaining their state of health, capable of balancing and sometimes overturning the traditional top-down relationship with the doctor. The downside is a medical culture increasingly oriented towards the measurement of health and well-being, while clinical experience teaches that taking care of people must include a global approach, focused on the identification and sharing of values, meaning, interests, dimensions that are difficult to measure.
