SDM is a passing fad, it is expensive, patients don’t want it and it is too time consuming. Sound familiar? Shared decision making (SDM), where clinicians and patients collaborate to make optimal healthcare decisions that align with what matters most to patients, is great in theory but difficult to translate to clinical practice. To address misconceptions and develop effective practical guidance, MD Anderson and ACHL interviewed 19 lung cancer patients and 3 caregivers to glean insights and feedback about opportunities with SDM. Three renowned thoracic oncologists discussed these findings, weigh the positives and negatives of SDM strategies considerate of a real-world setting, and share opportunities to reimagine SDM to improve outcomes for lung cancer patients.
