Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether providing patients with information about their global coronary heart disease CHD risk and effective risk-reducing strategies allows them to make appropriate decisions about heart disease prevention
Detailed Description:
Background Low utilization of effective CHD prevention strategies may be due to many factors but chief among them is the lack of patient involvement in prevention decisions We undertook this study to test the effectiveness of an individually-tailored computerized decision aid about CHD on patients discussions with their doctor and their plans for CHD prevention
Methods We conducted a pilot randomized trial in a convenience sample of adults with no previous history of cardiovascular disease to test the effectiveness of an individually-tailored computerized decision aid about CHD prevention against a risk factor list that patients could present to their doctor
