Patient, parent and professional expert perspectives on personalized regenerative implants: a qualitative focus group study. Regen Med. 2024;19(7-8):393-406. doi:10.1080/17460751.2024.23862141746-075110.1080/17460751.2024.2386214https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/108706Background: Perspectives of patients, parents and professional experts on personalized regenerative implants for regenerative medicine purposes are largely unknown. Method: To better understand these perspectives, we conducted four focus groups with professional experts of mixed European nationality (n = 8), Dutch patients with regular implants (n = 8), Dutch and Belgian (n = 5) and Spanish (n = 8) parents of children with cleft palate. Results: Two overarching themes were identified: ‘patient-centered research and care’ and ‘ambivalent attitudes toward personalized regenerative implants’. Discussion: The results reveal that stakeholders should adopt a participatory rather than an impairment discourse and address the ambivalence among professional experts, patients and parents. Conclusion: Considering stakeholder perspectives facilitates ethical and responsible development and use of personalized regenerative implants.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/journal article1746-076Xhttps://doi.org/10.1080/17460751.2024.2386214https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/17460751.2024.2386214open access617ethicsimplantperspectivesqualitative researchregenerative medicinestakeholder participationCiencias Biomédicas71 Ética
