Development and Evaluation of an Online Shared Decision-Making Educational Program for Nurses and Patients With Chronic Diseases
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Online Shared Decision-Making Educational Program for Nurses: The nurse program is a 4-week web-based shared decision-making educational program for nurses working in general hospitals. It is designed to enhance nurses' knowledge and skills in shared decision-making, decision support, and patient communication through self-directed online learning.
Online Shared Decision-Making Educational Program for Patients With Chronic Diseases: The patient program is a 4-week web-based shared decision-making educational program for adults with chronic diseases. It is designed to support patients in participating in shared decision-making by helping them prepare for decisions, explore options, and clarify their values and preferences.
General Communication Education for Nurses: The control condition consists of access to publicly available communication-related educational materials, such as those provided by the Nursing Human Resources Employment Education Center.
General Health Information for Patients With Chronic Diseases: The control condition consists of access to publicly available health management information, such as that provided by the National Health Information Portal.
Study summary
This study aims to develop and evaluate an online shared decision-making (SDM) educational program for nurses and patients with chronic diseases. Shared decision-making is a process in which healthcare professionals and patients make health-related decisions together based on the best available evidence and the patient's values and preferences. The study includes an evaluation phase. In the evaluation phase, the program will be tested among nurses working in general hospitals and adults with chronic diseases living in the community. Outcomes related to shared decision-making will be assessed at baseline, immediately after the 4-week program, and 1 month later. The study is expected to improve shared decision-making competence, experience, and preparedness among both nurses and patients.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Change in nurses' shared decision-making competence — Baseline, immediately after the 4-week intervention, and 1 month after the first post-intervention assessment
Nurses' shared decision-making competence will be assessed using a shared decision-making competence scale for nurses. The scale consists of 26 items with total scores ranging from 26 to 130. Higher scores indicate greater shared decision-making competence. Changes in scores from baseline to each follow-up assessment will be compared between the intervention and control groups. - Change in patients' shared decision-making experience — Baseline, immediately after the 4-week intervention, and 1 month after the first post-intervention assessment
Patients' shared decision-making experience will be assessed using the Shared Decision-Making Questionnaire-9 items(SDM-Q-9). The SDM-Q-9 consists of 9 items, with total raw scores ranging from 0 to 45. Higher scores indicate a greater level of patient-perceived shared decision-making. Changes in scores from baseline to each follow-up assessment will be compared between the intervention and control groups.
