Résumé

Shared decision-making tools have been underused by clinicians in real-world practice. Changes to the National Coverage Determination by Medicare for carotid stenting greatly expand the coverage for patients, but simultaneously require a shared decision-making interaction that involves the use of a validated tool. Accordingly, our objective was to evaluate the currently available decision aids for carotid stenosis. We conducted a review of the literature for published work on decision aids for the treatment of carotid disease. Four publications met inclusion criteria. We found the format of the decision aid impacted patient comprehension and decision making, although patient characteristics also played a role in the therapeutic decisions made. Notably, none of the available decision aids included the widely adopted transcarotid artery revascularization as an option. Further work is needed in the development of a widespread validated decision aid instrument for patients with carotid stenosis.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Shared decision-making tools have been underused by clinicians in real-world practice. Changes to the National Coverage Determination by Medicare for carotid stenting greatly expand the coverage for patients, but simultaneously require a shared decision-making interaction that involves the use of a validated tool. Accordingly, our objective was to evaluate the currently available decision aids for carotid stenosis.
METHODS METHODS
We conducted a review of the literature for published work on decision aids for the treatment of carotid disease.
RESULTS RESULTS
Four publications met inclusion criteria. We found the format of the decision aid impacted patient comprehension and decision making, although patient characteristics also played a role in the therapeutic decisions made. Notably, none of the available decision aids included the widely adopted transcarotid artery revascularization as an option.
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Further work is needed in the development of a widespread validated decision aid instrument for patients with carotid stenosis.
