Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Doctors know best is the paradigm for the paternalistic care model. Participatory medicine is characterized by including the patient as a partner in setting goals of care and participating in shared decision making. ePatient Dave is known for statements such as Gimme my damn data and promotes the maxim of Nothing about me, without me. Gilles Frydman is an epatient activist known for his work with the Association of Cancer Online Resources.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Someone who seeks health information from various sources and uses the information for decision making with health providers is inclusive of all types of epatients. Not all epatients use biosensors, nor do they all write blogs. Epatients collaborate with their provider to arrive at a decision.
