Description
Summary:Shared decision-making (SDM), which increases the patient’s well-being, adherence, and success of treatment, is becoming increasingly important in medicine and especially in oncology. To empower patients to participate more actively in consultations with their physicians decision aids have been developed. In non-curative settings, such as the treatment of advanced lung cancer, decisions differ substantially from the curative setting, as uncertain gains in terms of survival outcomes and quality of life have to be weighed against the severe side effects of treatment regimens. There is still a lack of tools developed and implemented for such specific settings in cancer therapy that support shared decision-making. The aim of our study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the HELP decision aid.
