These aim to enhance communication and information processing by using decision aids, evidence based patient information tools, educational programmes, and shared decision making.
No trails have been aired for the programme, a decision made by the BBC following a high court hearing last week at which a judge ruled against an attempt by Mahmood to prevent recent images of him being shown.

In 2011, the Malawi Ministry of Health developed a national health sector strategic plan 2011 2016 with the objective to coordinate and regulate health research in such a way that it generates information that will inform policy (and plan) development and evidence-based decision making in programme implementation [ 2].
Mathematical modelling is increasingly used in health-care programmes to assist in decision making processes, generalise on trial-based results and extrapolate from intermediate to final end points (Eddy, 1985; Buxton et al, 1997).
In the Free State province our rigorous evaluation, unobtrusively integrated alongside early stages of programme implementation, provided formative information for improving the programme and supported evidence based decision making on system-wide implementation.
In our recent project, an informed shared decision making (ISDM) programme on the prevention of myocardial infarction in type 2 diabetes has been developed [ 32, 33].
An informed shared decision making (ISDM) programme on the prevention of heart attack in type 2 diabetes has been developed [ 16, 17].
