Over the past decade health care systems around the world have
placed increasing importance on the relationship between patient
choice and clinical decision-making. In the years since the
publication of the second edition of Shared Decision Making in
Health Care, there have been significant new developments in the
field, most notably in the US where 'Obamacare' puts shared
decision making (SDM) at the centre of the 2009 Affordable Care
Act. This new edition explores shared decision making by examining,
from practical and theoretical perspectives, what should comprise
an effective decision-making process. It also looks at the benefits
and potential difficulties that arise when patients and clinicians
share health care decisions. Written by leading experts from around
the world and utilizing high quality evidence, the book provides an
up-to-date reference with real-word context to the topics
discussed, and in-depth coverage of the practicalities of
implementing and teaching SDM. The breadth of information in Shared
Decision Making in Health Care makes it an essential resource for
policy-makers and health care workers. As health care systems adapt
to increasingly collaborative patient-clinician care frameworks,
this will also prove a useful guide to SDM for clinicians of all
disciplines.
