Data Collection
ADVANCED CANCER
Oncologists and patients with advanced cancer were randomized to receive an SDM skills training and a patient communication aid, respectively. Consultations about advanced cancer treatment decisions were audio recorded and assessed by trained and blinded observers. Also, patients filled out questionnaires at baseline (T0), in the waiting room (T1), and at 1 wk (T2), 3 mo (T3), and 6 mo (T4) after the consultation. Data collection took place between February 2016 and June 2018.
