This piece focuses on the Optimising Shared decision-makIng for high-RIsk major Surgery (OSIRIS) programme. Shared decision making can be very challenging when we're not sure what the risks are and older patients with chronic diseases often make very different decisions when informed. How do we make this process more evidence based? How do we better understand this group and communicate with them? Are there technological answers to these questions?
