Decision Support Framework

This decision support framework was developed for practitioners and patients considering health care decisions that:
  1. are stimulated by a new circumstance, diagnosis, or developmental transition;
  2. require careful deliberation because of the uncertain and/or value-sensitive nature of the benefits and risks; and
  3. need relatively more effort during the deliberation phase than the implementation phase
