August 5, 2020

Course Director: Danil V. Makarov, MD, MHS

This course teaches the essentials of Shared Decision Making (SDM) to practicing urologists who help patients decide about prostate cancer screening and treatment. The course will go over the latest research documenting the benefits and drawbacks of PSA screening as well as treatment approaches for incident localized prostate cancer. It will also teach the participants how to practice SDM with their patients and will engage them in group-based role play. At the end of the session, participants will understand how to apply SDM in their practice and be able to comply with the recently-proposed USPSTF Grade C recommendation for PSA screening.
