摘要

Shared decision-making (“SDM”) has increased in acceptance and become a gold standard in medical decision-making over the last two decades. Despite this, there continues to be disagreement about several facets of SDM that many existing models or versions do not sufficiently address, including: that there is a lack of agreement about which version or model of SDM to utilize in practice; that there are practical limitations on when SDM ought to be utilized; that SDM may be required to use different “harm thresholds” when making decisions for patients who have lost decision-making capacity or competence, or for those who have never had such capacity in the first place; and that many existing models of SDM succumb to what is known as the “framing problem,” among other concerns. Elsewhere, this author presented a model of SDM titled, the Professionally-Driven Zone of Patient or Surrogate Discretion (or, Professionally-Driven ZPSD) as a more comprehensive and defensible way forward. This article sets out to expand on the expected benefits of the model, and apply it to several case studies in the acute-care setting in order to demonstrate its functionality as a model of SDM.
