Structured fields used in claim comparison tables when every cited study has a complete layer.

Key findings

Both constructs correlated with physical well-being, social well-being, and satisfaction (p ≤ 0.001). Patient-centered care predicted all three outcomes; co-creation predicted social well-being and satisfaction.

Methodology

In 2017 they surveyed multi-morbidity patients across eight Noord-Brabant practices and used correlation/regression to relate patient-centered care and co-creation of care to well-being and satisfaction.

Limitations

Cross-sectional associations cannot prove that changing care style causes better well-being; results are from one Dutch region.
