In episode 14 of season 6 of Inside the Science we’re highlighting the study, “Development of a patient decision aid on subacromial decompression surgery and rotator cuff repair surgery: an international mixed-methods study” with Dr. Joshua Zadro. He explains from where the idea of this paper came, some specifics as to what is included in the decision aid itself, what was identified as to when a shoulder surgery is appropriate, some of the differing opinions of the aid from patients versus various clinicians, the clinical implications and the big takeaways.
