In sum, the results show that a brief treatment decision aid focusing on preference elicitation and designed for a low-health literate patient population is successful in reducing decisional conflict. Further, this brief-focused program is as efficacious as our previously tested comprehensive decision aid, Healing Choices for Prostate Cancer. Decisional satisfaction was equally high and emotional quality of life was not increased. The major advantage of Healium is its’ brevity, its utility as a discussion tool for SDM, and its promise of integration within the electronic medical record to further facilitate the treatment counseling process.The study was funded by American Cancer Society’s Research Scholar Grant (RSG-15-021-01-CPPB) to MAD and SMM. SMM also received a Core Grant (P30CA006927) from the National Institutes of Health to Fox Chase Cancer Center and Fox Chase Cancer Center pilot funds.Authors' Contributions: All authors contributed to manuscript preparation.Conflicts of Interest: None declared.CONSORT-eHEALTH checklist (V 1.6.1).
