The Impact of Patient Involvement in Decision-Making About Heart Disease Prevention

Cardiovascular Disease Clinical Trial

Official title:
Decision Aid to Improve Coronary Heart Disease Risk Modification: a Pilot Randomized Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether providing patients with information about their global coronary heart disease (CHD) risk and effective risk-reducing strategies allows them to make appropriate decisions about heart disease prevention.

Clinical Trial Description

Background: Low utilization of effective CHD prevention strategies may be due to many factors, but chief among them is the lack of patient involvement in prevention decisions. We undertook this study to test the effectiveness of an individually-tailored, computerized decision aid about CHD on patients’ discussions with their doctor and their plans for CHD prevention.

Methods: We conducted a pilot randomized trial in a convenience sample of adults with no previous history of cardiovascular disease to test the effectiveness of an individually-tailored, computerized decision aid about CHD prevention against a risk factor list that patients could present to their doctor. ;
