Development e-tool
The decision aid was developed in the form of an online questionnaire
with knowledge from the IPDAS criteria of Elwyn13 ,
the NHG-standard for vaginal complaints2,16 , Hooiveld
et al. 17 and expert information of the GPs team. The
first part of the aid helps women with vaginal complaints self-diagnose
more accurately, while the second part directs them to a
treatment/action that is most appropriate and in line with their
preferences. Furthermore, an extensive explanatory algorithm of the
solutions presented by the e-tool was also embedded (after Molenaar18).
