Authors' objectives:
The purpose of this study is to open a debate with health care professionals and decision makers about how patient involvement can be shaped and developed.
The report gives two contributions to the discussion on the design of patient involvement: Firstly, it introduces a special model for patient involvement called Shared Decision Making. Secondly, it presents an empirical case study of patient involvement in treatment decisions in two treatment settings in the Danish health care system. The
study investigates approaches, conceptions, and interests of patients and health care professionals concerning patient involvement, understood as patients having influence on their treatment. Furthermore, it is a study that discusses the dilemmas and barriers for patient involvement that arise in everyday clinical encounters.
