OBJECTIVES: To summarize the existing literature on the impact of shared decision-making (SDM) interventions on patient trust, with a focus on the specific characteristics that influence the effectiveness of each intervention regarding the outcome of trust. METHODS: We conducted a systematic search of the literature with the aid of a research librarian. Data was extracted via Covidence regarding the characteristics of the study including interventions performed, trust scale used, primary and secondary outcomes, and effect size. RESULTS: From 6090 articles, 97 met criteria for full text review and 20 met inclusion criteria. Sixteen of these were original studies while the remaining 4 were secondary analyses. Eight studies reported a statistically significant increase in trust within the intervention group compared to controls while 12 reported no statistically significant changes. None had trust as a primary outcome. CONCLUSION: Interventions aimed at increasing SDM have the ability to increase trust, but do not always succeed at doing so. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: The results indicate that increasing SDM can improve trust in the physician-patient relationship, especially when SDM results in improved communication from clinicians. Further studies should look at populations with low baseline trust since a ceiling effect can occur with trust scales.
