简要总结
To verify whether amputation decision-making aids can alleviate the decisional dilemma in diabetic foot patients.
详细描述
Through a clinical controlled study, the nurse-assisted intervention group utilized the Decision-Making Aid Tool for Amputation in Diabetic Foot Patientsto assess patients' treatment choice stages, provide disease-related knowledge, and clarify the advantages and disadvantages of different treatment options. This tool also helped patients articulate their values and preference biases. Subsequently, a questionnaire survey was conducted to evaluate decisional conflict, decisional expectations, and decisional satisfaction between the two groups, aiming to assess the tool's application efficacy.

研究组 & 干预措施
Experimental group
In addition to receiving routine clinical consultations and nursing care identical to the control group, the intervention group will utilize an electronic decision-making aid for diabetic foot amputation. We will design this electronic tool and deliver it to participants via a WeChat Mini Program. Patients will be instructed to spend no more than 60 minutes using the tool, with researchers supervising their sessions and providing assistance as needed. During the study period, the electronic decision-making aid will remain confidential and accessible only to the intervention group, with restricted access for physicians and non-intervention patients.
干预措施: Applications of Decision-Support Tools in Amputation Decision-Making for Diabetic Foot Patients (Procedure)
Control group
Patients received routine clinical consultation and nursing care before and after random assignment.
干预措施: Routine Clinical Consultation and Nursing Care (Procedure)
结局指标
主要结局
Decisional Conflict Scale,DCS
时间窗: When the patient was admitted to the hospital;Three days post-surgery;One month postoperatively
The scale consists of 16 items and has undergone standardized conversion, with a total score of 100 points. A lower score indicates a lower level of decisional conflict in patients. A score \>25 suggests the presence of decisional conflict during the decision-making process, while a score \>37.5 indicates potential delays in decision-making
次要结局
- The Satisfaction with Decision Scale,SWD(Three days post-surgery ;One month postoperatively)
- The Control Preference Scale,CPS(When the patient was admitted to the hospital;Three days post-surgery;One month postoperatively)
- Decision Regret Scale,DRS(Three days post-surgery;One month postoperatively)
