| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Patient involvement through shared decision making is advocated to support patients deciding on a dialysis treatment suitable to their clinical condition, lifestyle and social circumstances. Evidence to date, however, suggests that shared decision making is far from routine practice. Not all physicians or patients are willing to participate in shared decision making. Equally, modality education does not always meet the needs of patients and their families, resulting in a significant proportion of patients remaining unaware of the existence of home therapies. The selection of home therapies appears to be tightly associated with the quality of the modality education. This paper considers several ways in which patient involvement in their dialysis modality decision can be improved, with particular reference to information provision. Information needs to be balanced, explore the medical as well as the psychosocial aspects of each treatment, be tailored to the needs of the individual patient and be delivered in a timely fashion. CONCLUSION: Optimising modality education will optimise patient's ability to participate in shared decision making, thereby improving uptake of home therapies. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
