Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The exploratory key endpoint was decisional conflict, as measured by the Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS). The questionnaire ranges from 0 to 100 and is widely used to assess comfort in the decision-making process. Higher DCS scores indicate higher decisional conflict. In both groups, we measured the decisional conflict from the perspective of the women with MS (before starting the respective intervention and after two weeks). For the decision coaching programme, decisional conflict was additionally measured from the perspective of the decision coach (nurse) after the decision coaching session. | — |
