Healthcare improvement Scotland has quality assessed all these decision aids against international quality standards. You can see a summary of this quality assessment for each aid.

You should ask for support from a healthcare professional in using these aids, to ensure that you fully understand the information. Never use these aids as a substitute for professional advice.
