This article describes the development and use of quality patient decision aids to support patient involvement in making healthcare decisions. Briefly, patient decision aids should provide at least information on options, benefits, and harms, and help patients clarify their values for outcomes of options. The International Patient Decision Aid Standards provide guidance on developing, evaluating, and implementing quality decision aids that minimize the risk of biased decision making. Combining these standards with the related Standards for UNiversal reporting of patient Decision Aid Evaluation studies (SUNDAE), authors of articles on patient decision aids can ensure clear, concise, and understandable reporting.
