Summary:Shared decision-making (SDM) is a collaborative effort between a physician and a patient to make an informed clinical decision, as defined by each patient’s preferences and values. Shared decision-making is particularly used in areas of clinical equipoise or preference-sensitive conditions, which are common in hand surgery. Although there is increased interest in SDM across health care, hand surgeons receive little formal training on SDM. In this review, we explore existing barriers to SDM in hand surgery and provide a framework for participating in SDM discussions.
