Patient-reported roles, preferences, and expectations regarding treatment of stage i rectal cancer in the cancer care outcomes research and surveillance consortium.
The researchers identified patient roles, preferences, and expectations as they relate to treatment decision making for patients with stage I rectal cancer. They found that, in this study of 154 adults with newly-diagnosed and surgically treated stage 1 rectal cancer, the preferred decision-making role for patients did not match the actual decision-making process. They recommended that future efforts focus on bridging the gap between the decision-making process and patient preferences regarding various treatment approaches.

Novel statistical approach to determine inflammatory bowel disease: patients' perspectives on shared decision making.
The aim of this study was to examine patient insights regarding shared decision making among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) using novel statistical technology to analyze qualitative data. From the 355 patients surveyed, the researchers identified three unique patient clusters: satisfied, content, and dissatisfied. They concluded that patient perspectives in this study indicate an increased desire for shared decision making in determining an optimal IBD treatment plan.
