Recommendations on how to find out what patients PREFER
On 28 April 2022 the PREFER project launched recommendations on why, when and how to assess and use patient preferences in medical product decision-making. During the launch, we presented take-home messages from the PREFER Recommendations. Missed the event? Don’t worry! A recording is now available!
In the presentation, we explain when and why structured input from patient preference studies can support decision making. We also describe the PREFER framework for how to do a preference study, how to identify and involve key stakeholders, how to pick the right method for your research questions, explore the impact of psychological constructs on preference heterogeneity, and how different approaches and educational materials can support patients' understanding, giving you more reliable results.
