Shared Decision Making: A Model for Clinical Practice

 

They propose that achieving SDM depends on tasks that help confer agency, where agency refers to the capacity of

individuals to act independently and to make their own free choices.27,28 SDM aims to confer agency by 1) providing information and 2) supporting the decision making process…

They describe three key steps of SDM for clinical practice, namely: choice talk, option talk and decision talk, where the

clinician supports deliberation throughout the process (Fig. 1 and Boxes 1, 2 and 3). Choice talk refers to the step of making sure that patients know that reasonable options are available.
