Ten scientific databases were searched. We selected peer-reviewed articles in cardiovascular care, with SDM and DT in the title and/or abstract published between January 2000 and March 2023. We extracted data on the type of DT, intended user(s), timepoint and mode of use, purpose, decision topic, underlying SDM model, and designs and outcomes of evaluation studies.

Half of the articles were published after 2018, with most published in 2022. Most DTs are web-based applications for interactive use before and during the encounter between patient and healthcare professional, to convey information on cardiovascular care, calculate personal risk and/or recommend treatment options.
