Crohn's disease shared decision making intervention leads to more patients choosing combination therapy: a cluster randomised controlled trial.
The purpose of this multi-site cluster randomised controlled trial was to test the impact of standard Crohn's disease care and compare with the impact of shared decision making (SDM) on the provider’s choice of therapy, quality of decisions, and provider trust. A total of 158 adult patients with Crohn's disease within 15 years of their diagnosis, with no prior Crohn's disease complications, and who were candidates to receive immunomodulators or biologics, from 14 diverse gastroenterology practices in the US, participated in the study. 99 of those participants received the intervention and 59 received standard care. The study found that participants in the intervention group chose combination therapy more frequently, had a significantly lower decisional conflict, and had greater trust in their provider.

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.
