It is currently applied at the University Hospital Schleswig-Holstein in Kiel, Germany, and among general practitioners at the Federal State of Bremen. This study examines the results of the full implementation of S2C in terms of effectiveness within the Kiel Neuromedical Center comprising the departments of neurology and neurosurgery.Method and Design: The S2C program consists of four combined intervention modules: 1) multimodal training of physicians; 2) a patient activation campaign including the ASK-3 method; 3) digital evidence-based patient decision aids; and 4) SDM support by nurses, e.g., as decision coaches. The SDM level before and immediately after implementation was retrospectively assessed in consecutively selected patients on the subscale “Patient Decision Making” of the Perceived Involvement in Care Scale (PICSPDM). Mean scores were compared with t-tests.Results: Eighty-nine percent of all physicians (N = 56) completed the SDM training. We developed a total of 12 evidence-based digital decision aids in the center, educated two decision coaches to support patients’ decision processes by using decision aids. Physicians adjusted patients’ pathways to incorporate the use of decision aids. Patients (n = 261) reported a significant increase in participation (p< 0.001; Hedges’ g = 0.49) in medical decision making.Conclusion: The S2C program has been successfully implemented within the entire Neuromedical Center. Patients reported a medium to small increase of perceived involvement in decision making demonstrating the effectiveness of the implementation. For future research, it might be interesting to investigate the sustainability of the effects of S2C. In addition, it seems useful to complement the patient-based evaluation with observer-based data.Keywords: shared decision making intervention, decision aids, physician training, patient activation, neurology, neurosurgery, SDM
