Shared decision making in breast cancer treatment guidelines: Development of a quality assessment tool and a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It is not clear whether clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) and consensus statements (CSs) are adequately promoting shared decision making (SDM).

Objective

To evaluate the recommendations about SDM in CPGs and CSs concerning breast cancer (BC) treatment.

Search strategy

Following protocol registration (Prospero no.: CRD42018106643), CPGs and CSs on BC treatment were identified, without language restrictions, through systematic search of bibliographic databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus, CDSR) and online sources (12 guideline databases and 51 professional society websites) from January 2010 to December 2019.

Inclusion criteria

CPGs and CSs on BC treatment were selected whether published in a journal or in an online document.
