The purpose of this paper is to examine the concept of autonomy, which is the subject of respect, namely, narrow bioethical autonomy and relational autonomy, before discussing autonomy in the era of personalized healthcare based on self-tracking technology. There is a need to extend the scope of the autonomy concept through a review of the autonomy debates presented by Tom Beauchamp and James Childress. Then, I suggest that relational autonomy based on the capability approach as a broader autonomy than the autonomy of consultation is a suitable concept of autonomy as an object to form ethical guidelines in a new situation.
