Summary

Shared decision making (SDM) is an approach where clinicians and patients make decisions together using the best available evidence. An understanding of the patient's treatment goals, the advantages and disadvantages of treatment options, and the likelihood of achieving the outcomes are important to patients. International guidelines recommend that all patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) at pre-dialysis stage should be educated to improve their knowledge and understanding of their condition and to choose the options for renal replacement therapy (RRT).

Despite these recommendations, pre-dialysis educations are often infrequent. Many patients feel unprepared. Wrong or insufficient understanding due to insufficient explanation of treatment can lead to negative emotions. This may lead to a situation in which the patient loses the opportunity to make patient's own choices, resulting in emergency dialysis or dialysis modality that is not suitable for patients. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate whether SDM has an effect on the choice of RRT among CKD patients.
