Trial Outcomes & Findings for Development and Implementation of Electronic Decision Aids for Genetic Testing in Inherited Cancer Syndromes (NCT NCT04704193)

NCT ID: NCT04704193

Last Updated: 2024-08-13

Results Overview

Measured with 6 items on a questionnaire that asks participants to rate the way certain information is presented on the decision aid. Each item is rated on a scale of 1 to 4, with 1 being poor and 4 being excellent.

Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Study phase

NA

Target enrollment

93 participants

Primary outcome timeframe

This outcome will be measured immediately following completion of the decision aid. The average completion time of the decision aid is 14 minutes.
