Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Multicenter Trial of a Shared DECision Support Intervention for Patients Offered Implantable Cardioverter-DEfibrillators (NCT NCT03374891)

NCT ID: NCT03374891

Last Updated: 2022-07-08

Results Overview

Multiple survey responses by participants will indicate knowledge changes over time. The Decision Quality Knowledge Survey measures knowledge about defibrillators. Possible scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more knowledge and better outcomes.

Surveys Only
These participants will fill out surveys in regard to their experiences, opinions, and knowledge of the defibrillator process.
Educational Video and/or Handout + Surveys
These participants will receive an educational video and/or handout about the defibrillator process. Then they will fill out surveys in regard to their experiences, opinions, and knowledge of the defibrillator process. Educational video and/or handout: The intervention includes a video and/or handout (whichever is easier for the participant) that will give information about defibrillators and about other patients' experiences with their decisions about defibrillators.
