Project title: Exploring how chiropractors integrate patient preferences into clinical decision making - A qualitative study
Project background: Clinical decision-making is a cornerstone of healthcare; however, integrating patient preferences into shared decision-making is under explored in the chiropractic literature. Thus, we are conducting a qualitative study using an interpretive phenomenological approach to explore chiropractors' lived experiences of clinical decision-making. Insights from this study will help guide the development of practice recommendations or shared decision-making tools to further the integration of patient preferences into shared decision-making in chiropractic settings.
Project objectives: Our project aims to explore the experiences of chiropractors in integrating patient preferences within clinical decision making.
