Use of Visual Decision Aid for Shared Decision Making in Chest Pain

NCT03674021 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 18

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the use of the chest pain choice (CPC) decision aid as a tool to facilitate discussion between the patient and his/her attending physician with regard to subsequent management plans. Patients aged 21 years and above with low-risk chest pain, as determined by the HEART score (HEART score 0-3), will be included. The investigator's hypothesis is that incorporating the Chest Pain Choice visual aid in shared decision making can help to reduce unnecessary admissions for low risk chest pain to the observation ward, as well as increase patient knowledge with regards to their own condition.

Chest Pain Choice visual aid

The Chest Pain Choice (CPC) decision aid is a visual aid that was developed to facilitate shared decision-making between physicians and patients who present to the emergency department with chest pain. The visual aid includes a brief description of what tests have been done thus far to assess the patient's risk of MACE, a graphic representation of the risk as calculated based on the HEART score, as well as the evaluation options available. The visual aid has been modified from its original form for the local context in terms of viable options for further evaluation.
