The development and utility of a multicriteria patient decision aid for people contemplating treatment for osteoarthritis
BACKGROUND: There are a range of treatment options for osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee and hip, each with a unique profile of risks and benefits. Patient decision aids can help incorporate patient preferences in treatment decision-making. The aim of this study was to develop and test the utility of a patient decision aid for OA that was developed using a multicriteria decision analytic framework. METHODS: People contemplating treatment for OA who…
A survey of Australian public attitudes towards funding of high cost cancer medicines
Towards generic online multicriteria decision support in patient‐centred health care
OBJECTIVE: To introduce a new online generic decision support system based on multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA), implemented in practical and user-friendly software (Annalisa©). BACKGROUND: All parties in health care lack a simple and generic way to picture and process the decisions to be made in pursuit of improved decision making and more informed choice within an overall philosophy of person- and patient-centred care. METHODS: The MCDA-ba…
Men's preferences and trade‐offs for prostate cancer screening: A discrete choice experiment
OBJECTIVES: Prostate cancer screening using prostate-specific antigen (PSA) remains controversial. In deciding about screening, men must weigh the benefits and harms: little is known about benefit: harm trade-offs men are willing to accept. The objective of this study was to assess men's preferences for PSA screening, and the trade-offs between benefits and harms men are willing to accept when deciding about screening. METHODS: Preferences of 662…
Prescription medicines: Decision‐making preferences of patients who receive different levels of public subsidy
Objective To compare the relative importance of medicine attributes and decision‐making preferences of patients with higher or lower levels of insurance coverage in a publicly funded health care system. Design and setting Cross‐sectional telephone survey of randomly selected regular medicine users aged ≥18 years in the Hunter Valley, NSW, Australia. Main variables studied Questions about 27 medicine attributes and active involvement in decisions …
Incorporating evidence and politics in health policy: Can institutionalising evidence review make a difference
Much of the evidence translation literature focuses narrowly on the use of evidence in the initial policy formulation stages, and downplays the crucial role of institutions and the inherently political nature of policy making. More recent approaches acknowledge the importance of institutional and political factors, but make no attempt to incorporate their influence into new models of evidence translation. To address this issue, this article uses …
Sociodemographic and health-related predictors of self-reported mammogram, faecal occult blood test and prostate specific antigen test use in a large Australian study
These results add to the literature on sociodemographic discrepancies related to cancer screening uptake and highlight the fact that many people are being screened for one cancer when they could be screened for two
When good evidence is not enough: The role of context in bowel cancer screening policy in New Zealand
Bowel cancer is a serious health problem in developed countries. Australia, the United Kingdom (UK) and New Zealand (NZ) reviewed the same randomised controlled trial evidence on the benefits and harms of population-based bowel cancer screening. Yet only NZ, with the highest age standardised rate of bowel cancer mortality, decided against introducing a bowel cancer screening programme. This case study of policy making explores the unique resource…

A matter of trust – patient's views on decision‐making in colorectal cancer
Objectives To determine which aspects of the treatment decision process, therapy and outcomes are most important to patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Design Cross‐sectional survey. Participants A total of 102 men and 73 women who had completed primary treatment for CRC in two teaching hospitals in Central Sydney, Australia. Main outcomes measures Patient's rating of the importance of the decision‐making aspects and outcomes of treatment for …
What constitutes success in preventive health care? A case study in assessing the benefits of hip protectors
Medical tests: Women's reported and preferred decision‐making roles and preferences for information on benefits, side‐effects and false results
Objective To determine women's preferences for and reported experience with medical test decision‐making. Design Computer‐assisted telephone survey. Setting and participants Six hundred and fifty‐two women resident in households randomly selected from the New South Wales electronic white pages. Main outcome measures Reported and preferred test and treatment (for comparison) decision‐making, satisfaction with and anxiety about information on false…
