It reviews the growing trend toward patients‘ involvement in their own care, particularly in terms of chronic conditions, and details approaches physicians can use to prepare patients (and themselves) for collaborative decision-making based on informed choices and clear, meaningful knowledge. Chapters apply this lens to a wide range of common interventions as contentious as estrogen replacement therapy and antibiotics, and as widely prescribed as the daily aspirin and the annual physical. With this goal in mind, the authors also introduce an innovative decision-making tool that translates risks and benefits into a clear graphic format for fewer chances of miscommunication or misunderstanding..Among the topics covered:.Involving the patient in decision making..Towards a universal decision aid..BRCT: the Benefit/Risk Characterization Theater..Breast Cancer Screening—Mammograms..Prostate Cancer Screening..Colon cancer screening with colonoscopy..Screening for and treating dementia..Statins, | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | 关键词 | Affordable Care Act; Chronic disease; Doctor/patient collaboration; Health benefits and risks; Health co | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-11544-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-11543-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-11544-3 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2015 |
