Summary

This study tests a decision aid called BCT Aid for women newly diagnosed with breast cancer. The tool helps patients understand their surgical options and what matters most to them. Researchers will compare women who use the aid to those who get usual care, looking at decision conflict, regret, and quality of life over 12 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
decision aid (BCT Aid)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could help women with breast cancer feel more confident and satisfied with their surgical choice, and possibly improve their quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with 160 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The decision aid is a behavioral tool, not a treatment, so it won't affect the cancer itself.
