Objective: To assess patient-perceived involvement in shared decision making among those diagnosed with breast or gynecologic malignancies undergoing chemotherapy associated with persistent chemotherapy-induced alopecia (pCIA). We also sought to identify factors that influence shared decision making. Methods: We recruited patients from the Gynecologic Medical Oncology and Breast Medicine Services at a large academic center for this prospective cohort study. All patients were scheduled to start chemotherapy between June 1, 2017 and December 31, 2017. Following medical consultation, including discussion of the risk of pCIA, patients completed the 9-item Shared Decision Making Questionnaire (SDM-Q-9). Clinical and sociodemographic information was also collected. Univariate analysis was used to evaluate SDM-Q-9 total scores and their constituents for all variables. Results: Sixty-one patients completed the survey. The median total SDM-Q-9 score was 95.6 (95% CI: 90–100). Most patients (n = 57, 93%) reported a high level of involvement (SDM-Q-9 total score > 66). There was no difference in total scores between patients with breast compared with gynecologic cancer (P > .05). By individual item, the scores for item Q1 (“My doctor made clear that a decision needs to be made”) were significantly lower for Black patients and those with advanced disease (P |
