Summary

Shared decision-making (SDM) is crucial in patient care. However, some patients prefer physicians to make treatment decisions, highlighting the need for personalized approaches in shared decision-making.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiothoracic Surgery
  • Medical Ethics
  • Patient-Centered Care

Background:

  • Shared decision-making (SDM) is increasingly emphasized in healthcare.
  • A case of type A aortic dissection refusing surgery highlighted the importance of SDM.
  • Initial enthusiasm for SDM in a cardiothoracic surgery department was noted.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the nuances and patient preferences within shared decision-making.
  • To understand physician and patient experiences with SDM in clinical practice.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative reflection on a personal patient experience.
  • Observation of departmental and hospital-wide adoption of SDM principles.

Main Results:

  • Physician's personal experience revealed reluctance to participate in SDM.
  • Patients may prefer physicians to make decisions, contrary to initial assumptions.
  • Reasons for patient reluctance in SDM were identified.

Conclusions:

  • SDM should be adaptable to individual patient preferences.
  • Physicians should compassionately respect patient's desire to not be involved in decision-making.
  • A flexible approach to SDM is essential in clinical practice.
