Human-Centred Design & Development of a <i>Shared</i> Decision Aid for Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease Facing Treatment for Coronary Heart Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Coronary artery disease (CAD) commonly accompanies chronic kidney disease (CKD) and carries unique management considerations for people with CKD. Shared decision-making (SDM) is a collaborative approach in which patients and physicians make decisions together based on a shared understanding of the health condition, treatment options and attributes, patient values and preferences, and risk tolerance. Our objective was to support SDM by creating a decision aid for patients with CKD and physicians addressing invasive vs conservative CAD treatment options, which included personalized risk estimates for treatment option attributes, and identification of patient values and preferences.

Methods

Applying human-centred design, informed by the International Patient Decision
