Women with early stage breast cancer face a multitude of decisions. The quality of a decision can be measured by the extent to which the treatment reflects what’s most important to an informed patient. Reliable and valid measures of patients’ knowledge and their goals and concerns related to breast cancer treatments are needed to assess decision quality. To identify a set of key facts and goals relevant to each of three breast cancer treatment decisions (surgery, reconstruction, and adjuvant chemotherapy and hormone therapy) and to evaluate the validity of the methods used to identify them. Candidate facts and goals were chosen based on evidence review and qualitative studies with breast cancer patients and providers. Cross-sectional surveys of patients and providers were conducted for each decision. The accuracy, importance, and completeness of the items were examined. 38 facts (11–14 per decision) and 27 goals (8–10 per decision) were identified. An average of 17 patients and 21 providers responded to each survey. The sets of facts were accurate and complete for all three decisions. The sets of goals and concerns were important for surgery and reconstruction, but not chemotherapy/hormone therapy. Patients and providers disagreed about the relative importance of several key facts and goals. Overall, breast cancer patients and providers found the sets of facts and goals accurate, important, and complete for three treatment decisions. Because patients’ and providers’ perspectives are different, it is vital that instrument development should include items reflecting both views.
