Neuroma, Acoustic Clinical Trial
Official title:
Impact of Shared Decision-Making With Decision Aids on Acoustic Neuroma Treatment Choice: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Patients with acoustic neuroma had several treatment options. One of standard treatment is to
receive the Gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery, other options included suboccipital
craniotomy and conservative treatment. Thus, shared decision making (SDM) is necessary to aid
patients to choose an appropriate treatment that suits their needs.
The investigators have developed a decision aids (DAs) and plan to conduct a randomized
controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate its impact on acoustic neuroma patients. The measurements
include a battery of interview-based questionnaires and evaluations of decision regret and
post-treatment depression. The investigators expect the DAs would benefit the intervention
group in the aspects of knowledge, communication and anxiety status during and after their
treatment sessions.
