The use of implicit persuasion in decision-making about treatment for end-stage kidney disease

CONCLUSION: The use of implicit persuasion while discussing different kidney replacement modalities appears diverse and quite common. Nephrologists should be made aware of these behaviours as implicit persuasion might prevent patients to become knowledgeable in each treatment option, thereby affecting SDM and causing decisional regret. The developed coding scheme for observing implicit persuasion elicits useful and clinically relevant examples which could be used when providing feedback to nephrologists.PMID:34212786 | DOI:10.1177/08968608211027019
