Increasing Patients' Engagement in Breast Cancer Surgery Decision-Making

Running, not enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Breast Cancer Stage 0, Breast Cancer Stage I, Breast Cancer Stage II, Breast Cancer Stage III

In brief

This trial studies how well a breast cancer surgery decision aid works in increasing patient engagement in decision making for patients with newly diagnosed stage 0-III breast cancer. The trial also examines barriers to patient engagement even with the use of a decision aid, and if barriers are more likely to be experienced by socioeconomically disadvantaged patients.
