【 摘 要 】

This study aimed to inform Hepatitis C (HCV) treatment by (1) better understanding the nexus of factors physicians consider when making HCV treatment decisions; (2) investigating the comparative influence and importance of specific factors and the trade-offs implicated in the decisionmaking process; and (3) examining how much thrombocytopenia impacts treatment decisions and how it impacts treatment.
