Abstract
Option Grids provide a fast and frugal approach to supporting shared decision-making, providing a promising solution to the implementation gap experienced by longer decision aids. On one page they present evidence-based summaries of the available condition-specific treatment options, alongside patients’ frequently asked questions, helping patients to discuss the key features, risks and benefits of treatment options in relation to their personal values and preferences. They are designed to be sufficiently brief enough for use in clinical encounters and accessible enough to support a better dialogue between patients and clinicians. The Option Grid Collaborative was formed in 2009 and operates on a not-for-profit basis to manage the development process as well as provide support to around 65 multi-disciplinary stakeholders currently involved in developing Option Grids. The Option Grid website ( www.optiongrid.co.uk ) hosts 13 Option Grids and there are a further 25 Option Grids in development as of September 2012. This paper provides guidance for individuals or teams who are interested in facilitating shared decision-making using short tools on how to develop an Option Grid.
