| Summary: | Antidepressants are the mainstay of depression treatment. However, little information is known about patient-centred
communication related to the use of antidepressant among people with depression. This review aims to provide a
comprehensive mapping of previously published studies on patient-centred communication in the use of antidepressants
among patients with depression. A scoping review of the literature was conducted using PubMed, CINAHL, and
Cochrane to answer the following questions: What is the nature of published scientific literature on this topic? and To
what extent do the published articles address the six core components of patient-centred communication, which are:
encouraging effective clinician-patient relationships, obtaining and providing information, responding to emotional
states, handling uncertainty, achieving the best decision as well as advocating patient self-management? Out of
494 records identified, a total of 13 articles were included in the scoping review (2 randomised controlled trials, 1
observational cohort study, 5 cross-sectional studies, 4 qualitative studies, and 1 review article). All 6 core components
of the patient-centred communication were discussed extensively in the literature except for 2 of them, which were
handling uncertainty and patient self-management. Shared decision making (SDM) was found to be a critical feature
in patient-centred communication. The six core components of patient-centred communication have been consistently
recognized as vital for the process of achieving patient-centred care. SDM can be included as a tool to assist clinicians
and patients in addressing effective clinician-patient relationships. |
