The National Prescribing Centre (NPC) has published MeReC Extra 36 (PDF).

The MeReC discusses some new evidence supporting the use of patient decision aids (PDAs) to help patients make informed choices about their treatment. It includes information about:

  • The advantages of using PDAs within the consultation process
  • Where to find PDAs
  • How to use PDAs and put risks into context

Action: Clinicians who discuss risks and benefits with patients will find this information about PDAs useful and informative.
