Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Cluster randomized trial of a multifaceted primary care decision-support intervention for inherited breast cancer risk.
GPs are increasingly expected to meet the needs of patients concerned about their risk of inherited breast cancer, but may lack skills or confidence to use complex management guidelines. We developed an evidence-based, multifaceted intervention intended to promote confidence and skills in this area. ⋯ No convincing evidence of the effectiveness of the intervention was found, probably reflecting barriers to its use in routine practice.
