Family satisfaction with decision making is assessed using the effective decision-making subscale of the decisional conflict instrument [O'Connor AM. Validation of a decisional conflict scale. Med Decis Making. 1995 Jan-Mar;15(1):25-30]. The subscale was four items regarding satisfaction with decision making (being informed, reflection of participant's own values, likelihood to comply, and satisfied). Scores for family satisfaction are reversed so that the higher scores reflect higher level of satisfaction (ie, a reversed Likert scale in which 5 is the highest scored). A mean score is obtained for each patient.
