    Abstract

    This study aimed to identify the decision support needs of parents attempting to make an informed health decision on behalf of a child. The first step towards implementing patient decision support is to assess patients’ information and decision-making needs. A systematic search of key bibliographic databases for decision support studies was performed in 2005. Reference lists of relevant review articles and key authors were searched. Three relevant journals were hand searched.
