Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Decision aid group
Shared decision making using decision aid
Decision aid is a tool that helps patients become involved in decision making on choosing treatment plans. Decision aid provides information about the options and outcomes, and by clarifying personal values.
No Intervention: Controlled group
Standard oral explanation with booklet

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Decision conflict
Time Frame: Immediately after patient received standard oral explanation with booklet or decision aids at out-patient department
We'd like to measure the score of SURE test, which published by Légaré at 2008, as a decisional conflict scale. SURE includes 4 questions representing "sure of myself, understand information, risk-benefit ratio, encouragement". Each question consisted of a typical five-level Likert item (strongly disagree, disagree, neither agree nor disagree, agree, strongly agree).
Immediately after patient received standard oral explanation with booklet or decision aids at out-patient department

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Health literacy
Time Frame: Immediately after patient received standard oral explanation with booklet or decision aids at out-patient department
Self-evaluation score of health literacy. We measure health literacy via one question of SURE test (Sure of myself - Do you feel SURE about the best choice for you?). This question also consisted of a typical five-level Likert item (strongly disagree, disagree, neither agree nor disagree, agree, strongly agree).
