Research progress on Shared Decision-Making in healthcare from a cross-cultural perspective in China
The concept of Shared Decision-Making in healthcare is a patient-centered approach,wherein nurses play a vital role.However,varying cultural backgrounds significantly influence the implementation of Shared Decision-Making,with distinct medical ethics and legal disparities posing additional challenges.In the context of China's familialism tradition,achieving an ideal model of autonomous decision-making can be particularly challenging.Therefore,this paper proposes that future nursing research in China should focus more on cross-cultural adjustments within the Shared Decision-Making process and emphasize the involvement and impact of nurses.It suggests to find a cultural balance to develop a multi-faceted Shared Decision-Making model and tools that are suitable for Chinese contexts.
