[Shared decision making in breast cancer patients--qualitative study on mutual decision making in breast cancer in a university hospital].
This qualitative study examines doctor-patient interactions and interviews with breast cancer patients referring to shared decision making. The interviews have been evaluated according to the method of grounded theory. Videos of doctor-patient interactions show information and discussions on therapy planning. Breast cancer is a serious, in many cases life-threatening disease. The primary therapy is characterised by confrontation with the diagnosis, fear and hope of the patients and the subsequent treatment. Central themes of the article are the context and implicit assumptions of doctors influencing the shared decision making approach.
