Evaluating complex medical treatment options: a case report
Published online on October 10, 2016
Abstract
Complex treatment decisions can be suboptimal due to lack of a reliable decision-making model, a need this paper aims to meet.
A model for making complex treatment decisions is introduced.
The utility of the proposed method is demonstrated by making a complex treatment decision involving evaluation of clozapine treatment in a treatment-resistant patient.
The proposed method implemented as a software tool can provide a framework for shared decision-making involving the patient.
