Abstract

Objective: Complex treatment decisions can be suboptimal due to lack of a reliable decision-making model, a need this paper aims to meet. Method: A model for making complex treatment decisions is introduced. Results: The utility of the proposed method is demonstrated by making a complex treatment decision involving evaluation of clozapine treatment in a treatment-resistant patient. Conclusion: The proposed method implemented as a software tool can provide a framework for shared decision-making involving the patient.
