- Whenever a patient and a clinician need to make a decision regarding a therapy, preventive measure, or diagnostic strategy - see Evaluating Shared Decision Making for Lung Cancer Screening
- Can be combined with the elicitation of subjective probability distributions from clinicians and patients involved in the decision process - see Use (and abuse) of expert elicitation in support of decision making for public policy
- Can involve cost-effectiveness analysis if the process will generate health policy making -- see Incorporating information about cost-effectiveness into evidence-based decision-making: the evidence-based practice center (EPC) model
- Encounters between clinicians and patients
Previous systematic reviews have shown that when clinical decisions are shared with patients, patient satisfaction levels go up [1]. Sometimes outcomes also might improve, the latter likely being related to adherence to treatment. While some patients might prefer to have clinicians make choices on their behalf, even their choice to have others making decisions is a form of shared decision making.
Shared decision making is often facilitated by decision aids [3] and/or calculators based on machine learning models.
- Qualitative and mixed methods research to investigate areas where shared decision making is more or less beneficial
- Two-stage preference-based trials, where a regular parallel trial has a third arm where patients can choose to have or not shared decision-making sessions.
- Machine learning models.
