...IPDASi criteria have provided a good measure for assessing the quality of patient decision aids and have proven internal reliability.(6) However, no decision has been made about the level of score at which decision aids would be considered good quality, appropriate, and of a necessary standard for use....

...Last, and most relevant to setting certification criteria for decision aids, the International Patient Decision Aids Standards (IPDAS) Collaboration has worked since 2003 on developing a quality criteria checklist(5) and a quantitative assessment tool based on this checklist (IPDASi).(6) The IPDAS checklist(5) can be used to assess the quality of decision aids across 12 dimensions, using 74 specific criteria....

...Strengths and Weaknesses The current work builds upon a strong foundation of previous work focusing on the assessment of decision aid quality.(5,6) The appropriate use of the Delphi method ensured that a wide range of international researchers were involved in the selection process, many of whom are experts in this field....

...We think it is likely the decision aid will be understood by a better educated group and will support informed choice. However, we cannot predict the effect on screening behaviour or attitudes among a better educated population. Some researchers have suggested that information about harms may differentially dissuade lower education groups compared with their higher educated counterparts from carrying out preventive health behaviour since it encourages a focus on immediate harmful consequences and may bias participants with lower education away from valuing future benefits....

...The IPDAS collaboration and the resulting instruments (IPDASi and IPDASi-SF) need to meet the following challenges: How can new dimensions and items be considered? How are valid ‘option menus’ in DSTs derived and agreed when there are complex debates about equity, economics and evidence? Should there be items that assess the use of theory in the development of these methods, given that these are examples of ‘complex interventions’ and deserve attention to frameworks of design and mode of action [22]....
