ABSTRACT
Objective:
Decision aids have been developed to help prospective parents make informed, shared decisions about medical tests, but these options are rapidly changing. This study aimed to identify and evaluate publicly available decision aids written in English for prospective parents seeking prenatal test information.Methods:
A systematic review process was followed using 3 sources known decision aid repositories, fetal medicine organisations and Google. The search, screening process, quality assessment, and data extraction was performed by two independent researchers. The quality assessment of the decision aids was based on the International Patient Decision Aids Standards (IPDAS v.4.0).Results:
We identified 13 decision aids, which varied in the screening and diagnostic tests that they discussed. No decision aid met all the IPDAS v.4.0. criteria and no decision aid reported updated risk of miscarriage for amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS). There was a lack of decision aids for some common decisions in the prenatal context.Conclusion:
We identified outdated content in current prenatal decision aids. The findings will inform healthcare professionals of the quality of current prenatal decision aids, which may facilitate their patients' informed decision-making about prenatal tests. Innovation Considerations for improving future decision aids are outlined.
