A commercially available web-based breast cancer surgery decision aid

Intervention: Web-based decision aid (Other)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Knowledge using the Breast Cancer Decision Quality Instrument

Time Frame: immediately prior to the surgical consultation

Secondary Outcomes

  • Perceived communication with the breast surgeon using the Breast Cancer Decision Quality Instrument(following the surgical consultation but prior to the surgery)
  • Decisional concordance using the Breast Cancer Decision Quality Instrument(immediately prior to the surgical consultation)
  • Breast surgeon and staff (nurse, mid-level provider) assessment of how the web-based decision aid versus standard high-quality breast cancer websites influenced their patient interactions, based on Practitioner Opinion Survey(at completion of patient accrual, estimated to be 2 years after initiating study)
