German health projects are improving shared decision making (SDM) tools for diverse diseases. A new instrument was developed based on process elements, addressing limitations of existing measures for better clinical practice integration.

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Clinical Practice Improvement
  • Patient-Centered Care

Background:

  • German Ministry for Health and Social Security funds ten projects to integrate shared decision making (SDM) into clinical practice.
  • Projects cover diverse medical conditions including depression, multiple sclerosis, and cancer.
  • Existing instruments for measuring SDM process and outcomes in German-speaking regions are lacking.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a new instrument for measuring shared decision making (SDM) in clinical practice.
  • To address limitations identified in existing SDM measurement tools through linguistic and cultural validation.
  • To create a culturally and linguistically validated instrument for improved SDM assessment across various diseases.

Main Methods:

  • Consensus was reached on a core set of instruments for SDM process and outcome measurement.
  • Linguistic and cultural validation of existing instruments was performed.
  • A new instrument was developed by defining the construct of SDM and its process elements, followed by item generation.

Main Results:

  • Data analysis and patient interviews highlighted the need for improved SDM measurement instruments.
  • The development process focused on integrating identified limitations into a novel instrument.
  • The newly developed instrument is currently undergoing validation for different diseases.

Conclusions:

  • There is a clear need for improved and validated instruments to measure shared decision making (SDM) in clinical settings.
  • The newly developed instrument, based on defined process elements, aims to enhance SDM assessment.
  • Further validation across various diseases is crucial for the widespread adoption of the new SDM instrument.
