Implementing Breast Reconstruction Clinical Decision Support in Diverse Practice Settings
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Breast Reconstruction Education and Support Tool (BREASTChoice), Attention Control Website, and 1 other intervention for Breast Reconstruction and Breast Cancer. Completed, enrolled 396 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
Breast reconstruction after mastectomy is a highly personal decision. Although it can restore quality of life for many, there are numerous risks associated with the procedure. The risk of complications exceeds that of most elective procedures. In past work, a clinical decision support tool, BREASTChoice, with personalized risk information and patient preferences, was created to be used to address these issues. It was modified with extensive stakeholder input and built to be incorporated into electronic health records and patient portals. This randomized control trial will evaluate whether the implementation of BREASTChoice into routine care delivery is more effective than a control website, at improving the quality of reconstruction decisions.
