Study Summary

The Decisions about Cancer screening in Alzheimer's Disease (DECAD) study tests if an evidence-based decision aid for dementia caregivers can support decision-making about mammography and improve the quality of medical decision-making about breast cancer screening. This large randomized controlled trial will recruit up to 450 dyads (900 individual participants) of older women with dementia and a family caregiver, for a goal of 426 dyad baselines (852 individual participants).

Primary Outcome

The Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS) includes 16-items on a 1-5 Likert scale. Questions are regarding a medical decision that participants have made or that they are about to make; it measures uncertainty around a decision, whether one feels informed, clear about their personal values, and supported in their decision-making It is a validated and widely accepted measure of decision quality that has been used in previous studies of decision aids intended for AD caregivers. Scores can range from 0-1
