Trial Outcomes & Findings for Testing of a Tool to Elicit Patient Preferences for CTS (NCT NCT03532373)

NCT ID: NCT03532373

Last Updated: 2024-07-03

Results Overview

The Decisional Conflict Scale measures uncertainty in choosing options; modifiable factors contributing to uncertainty such as feeling uninformed, unclear about personal values and unsupported in decision making; and effective decision making such as feeling the choice is informed, values-based, likely to be implemented and expressing satisfaction with the choice. The survey consists of 16 statements with 5 response categories. Scoring: total scale-0 (no decisional conflict) to 100 (extreme decisional conflict). Lower values indicate lower decisional conflict- i.e. a better outcome for use of the tool. Calculation: Summed, divided by # of items, multiplied by 25
