简要总结
The objective of this study was to develop a web-based, shared decision-making (SDM) tool for helping patients with breast cancer make decisions on fertility preservation.
详细描述
Background: The pregnancy rate after cancer treatment for female survivors is lower than that of the general population. Future infertility is a significant concern for patients with breast cancer and is associated with a poor quality of life. Reproductive- age patients with breast cancer have safe options when choosing the type of fertility preservation method to be applied. Better information and support resources aimed at women to support their decision making are needed.
Objective
The objective of this study was to develop a web-based, shared decision-making (SDM) tool for helping patients with breast cancer make decisions on fertility preservation.
Methods: We used the action research cycle of observing, reflecting, planning, and acting to develop a web-based SDM tool. The following four phrases were applied: (1) Observe and reflect: Collect and analyze the decision-making experiences of patients and health care providers; (2) Reflect and plan: Apply the initial results to create a paper design and modify the content; (3) Plan and act: Brainstorm about the web pages, and modify the content; (4) Act and observe: Evaluate the effectiveness, and refine the website SDM. Interviews, group meetings, and constant dialogue were conducted between the various participants at each step. The effectiveness was evaluated using the Preparation for Decision-Making (prepDM) scale.
