Summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Patients require good communication with the physician to improve control illness. Shared decision making is a promising opportunity for chronic disease management due to the relative cost, medicine optimization and decreases hospital admissions/re-admissions

Detailed description

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the leading one on hospital care cost, physician services, and prescription drugs. Additionally to the disease progression with the reduction in lung function, COPD patients experiment a progressive decline in functional capacity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) with a significant burden in terms of disability. Shared Decision Making is defined as an approach where clinicians and patients share the available information to making clinical decisions, and where patients are counseled. SDM is a way to empower patients when decisions are made about treatment as a determinant factor in patient-centered care. Decision aids have been proven effective in improving disease knowledge, decision making, and self-care.
