The usefulness of the aids relies on the physician's communication skills and clinical knowledge.…”

“…Dr. Montori previously reviewed the process for developing diabetes decision making aids. 12 The overall design of the antidepressant aids built on the fourth, and final prototype used in his study.…”

“…They used pattern recognition to identify problems and challenges and used these as opportunities to experiment with the prototypes. 12 We relied on feedback from ICSI team members, physicians, and patients but did not have access to advisory or research teams.…”

“…Implementation of the decision aids encouraged patients to ask their physicians questions and voice concerns. 12 Dr. Montori and his team have also created decision aids to assist patients with type 2 diabetes select an appropriate statin to treat hypercholesterolemia. This set of aids increased the proportion of patients who adhered to statins at three months and assisted in improved dialogue between patients and their providers.…”

Shared decision-making in rheumatology : what matters to patients?
