My NICE scholarship project
Implementing shared decision making in thecare of people with osteoarthritis of the hip
or knee in County Durham
Background to project• Problems that need addressing
– Osteoarthritis is common and a major source of disability– Increasing incidence of hip & knee osteoarthritis and number
of replacements– Large geographical variation in joint replacement rates not
related to population need– Underutilised, effective interventions: exercise, weight loss– Unnecessary orthopaedic referrals
• Role of shared decision making– Alternative to severity thresholds in managing access and
addressing unwarranted variation– Clinicians broadly supportive but not widely implemented– Method of implementation of clinical guidance
