Shared decision-making in the treatment of uncomplicated gallstone disease: A cross-sectional pilot study
This study demonstrates a moderate level of SDM in consultations for uncomplicated gallstone disease but reveals considerable discrepancies between patient/surgeon perceptions and observer assessments. Higher SDM scores were associated with the choice of surgery. These findings highlight the need for targeted strategies to improve the quality and consistency of SDM in the management of uncomplicated gallstone disease.
