First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looked at how perceived racial discrimination affects communication and decision-making between seriously ill patients and their doctors. Researchers tested a program called PRISM to help build resilience and improve these conversations in racial minority patients. The goal was to see if the approach was feasible and acceptable, not to cure or treat the illness itself.
