Background
• Patients generally want to be involved in decision making about their health.
• SDM is occurring to a very limited extent in routine primary care practice.
• Emerging evidence supports effectiveness of training programs in SDM skills.
• Web-based cases have been shown to be effective in medical education.
![Page 4: Enhancing Physician Competencies for Shared Decision Making in Primary Care](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050614/58f0707c1a28ab611e8b45ff/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Project Aims
1. Identify skills physicians need to develop, and key behaviors they should exhibit, for promoting shared decision making with their patients.
2. Develop a web-based educational curriculum using Design A Case (DAC©) software to improve physician competencies for shared decision making in routine practice.
3. Implement and evaluate the educational program in a sample of primary care physicians.

Aim 1
Identifying Competencies for SDM
![Page 6: Enhancing Physician Competencies for Shared Decision Making in Primary Care](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050614/58f0707c1a28ab611e8b45ff/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Methods for identifying sources
1. Contact leaders in SDM training (Legare, O’Connor, etc).
2. Literature search for training programs, conceptual frameworks, and measurement systems.
3. Search conference presentations / abstracts (ISDM ’09, SIIPC ’08).

1. Describe the Need for a Decision
Describe the health issue or
decision.
Communicate uncertainty.
Emphasize the need for a decision.
2. Review the Options
Discuss the options.
Provide a balanced
explanation of the pros and cons of
each option.
Provide probabilities
using accepted principles of risk communication.
Assess the patient’s
comprehension.
3. Explore Patient's Values
Discuss the patient’s views of
the options.
Explore the patient's values.
4. Determine Patient's
Preferred Role
Assess the patient's preferred role in making the
decision.
5. Negotiate a Course of
Action
Assess the patient’s
readiness to make a decision.
Elicit the patient's initial preferences
for the options.
If the patient prefers, provide a recommendation
about which option seems best
for the patient.
Negotiate with the patient a mutually
agreed upon course of action.
6. Make Plans for Follow-Up
Help undecided patients access
additional support and other
resources to make the decision.
Make a plan to review the decision or deferment.
Document in the medical record that a discussion about
the problem occurred, whether a patient decision aid was used, and what decision was made.
OverarchingThemes
Six Steps in the Shared Decision Making Process
Encourage patient questions.
Provide guidance in the decision
making process.Tailor information
to the patient. Establish a
partnership with the patient.

General knowledge of SDM (% correct)
SDM is a process between patient and provider in which both parties express values and participate in making a decision.
83.7
The clinician alone is best equipped to make the final decision.* 100.0
An equipoise decision is one where the scientific evidence does not favor one option over another. 95.6
* Correct response is false.

Conclusions
• A case-based, online, interactive educational program on SDM skills is well-received by primary care clinicians.
• Knowledge of SDM processes demonstrated.
• Clinicians appear confident in performing steps of SDM (lowest for role preferences and values).
• Some suggestion that clinicians plan to utilize SDM processes with their patients.

Remaining questions
1. Are there better case models?
2. Assessing preferred role and patients’ values remains a challenge – modeling / video?
3. Is a “single infusion” sufficient to promote SDM behaviors? Unlikely.
Might the case be part of a multicomponent training program, within a longitudinal experience?
4. Is ethics CME the way to go for broad dissemination?
