We are finding better ways for patients to make decisions about major surgery. The OSIRIS programme is led by @NHSBartsHealth & @QMUL & funded by @OfficialNIHR
A research project aimed to understand and improve the shared decision-making process for patients at high risk of medical complications as they contemplate major surgery. The OSIRIS study registered at #ISRCTN by @OsirisProgramme

@BJAJournals @GemHughes The research was the first part of the @OsirisProgramme funded by @NIHRResearch
Osiris focuses on improving the process of decision making for patients at high risk of medical complications when considering major surgery

@BJAJournals @GemHughes @OsirisProgramme@NIHRresearch @rupert_pearse The rationale for the work is that >older people are having major surgery, with >risks of complications related to comorbidities
Surgery might be successful but any complications that follow that mean these patients don’t see the benefits they might have hoped for

@BJAJournals @GemHughes @OsirisProgramme@NIHRresearch @rupert_pearse We need for better decision making, information, and support for ‘high risk’ patients to make informed decisions about major surgery
Shared decision making (SDM) is an important approach. Not much is known about how the patients we are concerned about engage in SDM

@BJAJournals @GemHughes @OsirisProgramme@NIHRresearch @rupert_pearse The study in BJA is one of 6 in the Osiris programme
It was conducted at the outset of the programme to explore how, when & why clinicians and patients can share decisions about major surgery
It also informed the development of an intervention to support SDM

How can people at high risk of poor outcomes after major surgery get involved in decisions about their care?
This NHS Alert distils key findings from our qualitative study, part of the @OsirisProgramme, on shared decision making👇

@fowler Shared-decision making is a MDT sport. We need multi-modal interventions measuring also patients reported outcomes @_tim_stephens https://t.co/ZVCUzOIj1s
Important discussion this afternoon at #SOA23 by @rupert_pearse. Chronic disease are associated with 10-fold increase in risk of postoperative death. It is the time for quality shared-decision making using patients reported outcome and multi-method research.
Headlines:
Different types of consultation - resolution-focused, evaluative and deliberative - provided different opportunities for shared decision-making
Decisions about major surgery were not always shared between patients and doctors
Our new paper, focused on shared decision-making about major surgery with high-risk patients
Great to get this out - thanks @GemHughes @rupert_pearse @_tim_stephens@drjimday@Wee_JennyEd, Mark Edsell, Ester Evagliano and Leslie Everest

This was the first study from the @OsirisProgramme, conducted in 5 UK hospitals
We analysed video recordings of consultations involving decision making about major orthopaedic, colorectal or cardiac surgery, plus interviews with patients/clinicians, observations and documents
We are recruiting! Come work with us on critical care follow-up, linking remote assessments to faster attainment of patient goals. https://t.co/nzIbSy4iLW
