Shared Decision Making and How It Impacts the Patient Understanding

Summary

Shared Decision Making (SDM) supports patient centered care and improves patient outcomes and satisfaction. Movement is Life (MIL) created an innovative SDM tool to provide a personalized framework for discussion of the projected impact to patients of their decisions regarding treatment options for knee osteoarthritis.

1. Did use of the MIL SDM tool for knee osteoarthritis result in an increased level of self-reported physical activity at one month in African American and Hispanic women?
2. Did use of the MIL SMD tool increase subject likeliness to recommend the physician?
3. What is the qualitative feedback from subjects on ease of use of the MIL SDM tool?

Shared Decision Making Tool

We've used the framework from this model and adapted it to the patient perspective to create a Patient Shared Decision Making Tool. The model is interactive so it can be customized to a specific patient. It has adjustments built in for gender, race/ethnicity, age, and select comorbidities (obesity, hypertension and diabetes). The strongest, underlying message is that any treatment choice is better than not seeking treatment. To illustrate this, a "Do Nothing" pathway is included for comparison purposes.
