Formative Research about Shared Decision Making in the Treatment of Opioid Use Disorder in Pregnant Women

Abstract

Background Shared Decision Making (SDM) is an evidence-based practice that involves a discussion between a health care professional and patient to reach a mutual agreed upon treatment plan.(1) A recent nationally-representative study indicates that only 39% of physicians use SDM for 50% or fewer Pregnant Women with Opioid Use Disorders (PWOUD).(2) Little is known about factors that affect SDM among PWOUD. This research project aimed to address this knowledge gap.https://jdc.jefferson.edu/pharmacyposters/1027/thumbnail.jp
