Clinical Trial Summary

This study aimed to investigate the effect of attending a SHARE model communication course by emergency physicians on patient notification and signing of do-not-resuscitate (DNR) orders for critical patients in the emergency room.

Description:

An observation form designed based on the SHARE model was completed by two observers who noted the communication process between physicians and patients and family members during patient notification and signing a DNR order. To assess the influence of physicians attending a SHARE model course on the signing of DNR orders, a propensity score-matched population was created to reduce the potential selection bias of patients and family members.
