Bridging the care gap: patients’ needs and experiences regarding shared decision-making in radiotherapy
Our findings reaffirm that most cancer patients prefer SDM, and extend these findings to RT. However, we found a large gap between patients' desire for SDM, and the SDM experienced in our RT institute. SDM implementation strategies are needed and should focus on overcoming RT-specific and patient-reported barriers and opportunities.
