Trial Outcomes & Findings for PCORI-CER-1306-03385 Informed Decisions About Lung Cancer Screening (NCT NCT02286713)

NCT ID: NCT02286713

Last Updated: 2021-02-01

Results Overview

The Preparation for Decision Making© Scale assesses a patient's perception of how useful a decision aid or other decision support intervention is in preparing the respondent to communicate with their practitioner at a consultation visit and making a health decision. The scale is scored by summing the 10 items and dividing by 10. Scores are then converted to a 0-100 scale by subtracting 1 and multiplying by 25. Higher scores indicate higher perceived level of preparation for decision making. For this study, researchers used the patient version of the Preparation for Decision Making© scale, adapted for Lung Cancer Screening (LCS) context.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessment at 1-week follow-up.

Population: Of participants providing data at the 1-week follow-up, seventeen(17) of the participants did not answer the scale items and were therefore dropped from analysis.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessment at 1-week follow-up.

Population: All participants providing data at the 1-week follow-up where one participant in the Decision Aid Arm did not answer the scale questions and was dropped from the analysis.

A 3-item subscale that measures the degree to which the patient feels informed in making a decision about lung cancer screening. Total scores range from 0 (feels extremely informed) to 100 (feels extremely uninformed) related to making a decision. The scale was adapted for the LCS context.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessment at 1-week follow-up.

Population: Of participants providing data at the 1-week follow-up, one participant in the Standard Educational Information group did not answer the Values Clarity Subscale questions and was dropped from the analysis and where one participant in the Decision Aid Arm did not answer the scale questions and was dropped from the analysis.

A 3-item subscale that measures the degree to which the patient feels clear about his or her values related to the lung cancer screening decision, including values about the harms and benefits. Total scores range from 0 (feels extremely clear about personal value for benefits and risks/side effects of screening) 100 (feels extremely unclear about personal value for benefits and risks/side effects of screening) related to making a decision. The scale was adapted for the LCS context.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: One week to 6 months, assessments at 1-week, 3-months and 6-months follow-up.

Population: For the participants providing data at the 1-week follow-up, no data was missing in either group.

A 12-item, self-report measure of the patient's knowledge of facts related to lung cancer and lung cancer screening, including the harms and benefits of testing. The knowledge scale yields a single score, representing the percentage of correct responses (ranging from 0% to 100% correct). Higher scores indicate greater knowledge.
