Decision Aid for Shared Decision Making in Acute Respiratory Failure

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to develop, in close collaboration with stakeholders, an evidence-based decision aid for patients with acute respiratory failure.  To evaluate the impact of the decision aid on patient-important outcomes. We will conduct a prospective trial assessing the impact of the decision aid (vs. usual specialist care) on patient knowledge, patient involvement in decision-making, decision quality, treatment choice, and patient outcomes.
