Decision Aid for Anticoagulation Duration After Unprovoked Venous Thromboembolism (DECIDE-VTE)

2026년 6월 19일 업데이트: Marc Rodger, McGill University Health Centre/Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre

Enabling and Engaging Patients to Decide Indefinite Versus Short-Term Anticoagulation for Venous Thromboembolism (DECIDE-VTE)

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a common condition that is typically treated with blood thinners (anticoagulants). After completing at least 3 months of treatment for a first unprovoked or weakly provoked VTE, patients and clinicians must decide whether to stop anticoagulation or continue treatment for a longer period. Continuing anticoagulation reduces the risk of another blood clot but increases the risk of bleeding. Because both options involve important benefits and risks, this decision should reflect the patient's values and preferences.

The DECIDE-VTE study will evaluate whether a patient decision aid can improve decision-making for patients facing this choice. The decision aid provides evidence-based information about the risks and benefits of continuing versus stopping anticoagulation and includes a values clarification exercise to help patients identify what matters most to them.

This multicentre batched stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial will be conducted in 12 thrombosis clinics across Canada. Clinics will transition from usual care to implementation of the patient decision aid according to a randomized schedule. The primary outcome is decisional conflict immediately following the anticoagulation decision visit, measured using the Decisional Conflict Scale. Secondary outcomes include patient knowledge, treatment decisions, decisional regret, concordance with the chosen treatment strategy, recurrent venous thromboembolism, major bleeding, all-cause mortality, and implementation outcomes.

상세 설명

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is commonly treated with anticoagulation. After completing initial anticoagulation for a first unprovoked or weakly provoked VTE, patients and clinicians must decide whether to discontinue anticoagulation or continue treatment long term. This is a preference-sensitive decision because continued anticoagulation reduces the risk of recurrent VTE but increases the risk of bleeding.

The DECIDE-VTE Patient Decision Aid was developed to support shared decision-making about anticoagulation duration. The tool provides structured information about treatment options, recurrence and bleeding risks, and includes a values-clarification exercise to help patients consider which outcomes and treatment burdens matter most to them.

This study is a pragmatic, multicentre, batched stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial. Participating thrombosis clinics begin in the usual care phase and transition to implementation of the DECIDE-VTE Patient Decision Aid according to a randomized schedule. Randomization occurs at the clinic level to reduce contamination between study conditions and to reflect real-world implementation of the decision aid into routine thrombosis clinic care.

The study will assess whether integrating the DECIDE-VTE Patient Decision Aid into clinical care improves decision quality compared with usual care, and will also evaluate implementation-related measures relevant to future use of the tool in practice.

무기와 개입

참가자 그룹 / 팔
개입 / 치료
간섭 없음: Usual Care
Participants receive standard thrombosis clinic care and clinician-patient discussions regarding continuation versus discontinuation of anticoagulation following a first unprovoked or weakly provoked venous thromboembolism. No structured patient decision aid is used.
실험적: DECIDE-VTE Patient Decision Aid
Participants receive the DECIDE-VTE Patient Decision Aid in addition to usual thrombosis clinic care. The decision aid provides evidence-based information regarding the risks and benefits of continuing versus discontinuing anticoagulation after a first unprovoked or weakly provoked venous thromboembolism and includes a structured values clarification exercise to support shared decision-making. Participants and clinicians make the final treatment decision together during the Decision Visit.
행동: DECIDE-VTE Patient Decision Aid
The DECIDE-VTE Patient Decision Aid is a bilingual (English/French) evidence-based decision support tool designed for adults with a first unprovoked or weakly provoked venous thromboembolism who are deciding whether to continue or discontinue anticoagulation after completing at least 3 months of therapy. The decision aid presents balanced information regarding the risks and benefits of extended anticoagulation, including risks of recurrent venous thromboembolism and major bleeding, and incorporates a structured values clarification exercise to support shared decision-making between patients and clinicians during the anticoagulation Decision Visit.
