Description
Christin Hoffmann and co-authors set out a protocol to build a core outcome set for shared decision-making studies. Shared decisions join patients and clinicians in picking care together. Decades of studies use such mixed outcomes that pooling their results is hard. A core set would name the outcomes every trial should report.
Step one gathers a long list of candidate outcomes from past reviews and talks. Step two trims the list through a two-round Delphi survey in two panels. At least one hundred fifty people across key groups will take part. Step three locks the final set in consensus meetings with a group method. The plan follows known handbooks for building such sets.
