The Patient: Patient-Centered Outcomes Research, 2014, vol. 7, issue 2, 207-217

Abstract: This environmental scan will demonstrate principles of patient-centered outcomes research, and it will exemplify a pioneering approach for reviewing complex interventions. Anticipated limitations are that information will be gathered from a small sample of patients and families, and that potentially relevant information could also be missing from the environmental scan due to the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Outcomes from the environmental scan will inform future patient-centered research to develop and evaluate a new decision aid. Copyright Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2014
