Ethics approval(s) | Not provided at time of registration |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Multiple sclerosis (MS) |
Intervention | Patients will be recruited nationwide through newspapers, self-help-group publications and the internet. Patients within a decision process about immunotherapy will be included. Those are either patients on therapy willing to re-evaluate their decision or patients about to make a therapeutic decision. A presupposition for this is an appointment with the treating neurologist in the near future. Intervention group: Participants in the intervention group are provided with a 'Decision Aid' including a comprehensive evidence based MS patient information about options of immunotherapy and an interactive working sheet to be dealt with before the appointment with the neurologist. Control group: Participants in the control group receive a set of standard information made available and recommended by the German MS-society. |

Primary outcome measure | Primary endpoint are the 'realized role preferences' defined as the difference between autonomy preferences (pre intervention) and performed autonomy (post appointment). A difference as small as possible is defined as the desirable outcome. Secondary endpoints include the number of continued, changed, interrupted, or newly started immunotherapies. Also, analyses of the 'shared decision process' and 'decision evaluation' are performed. We also look at a number of control parameters (eg. other information sources, time to initiation of treatment, control beliefs, etc.) and clinical variables (disability status and disease activity). |
