Abstract
Our study emphasizes that when choosing a treatment option for vesicoureteral reflux in their child, parent preferences regarding risks and benefits are variable. However, their chief concerns include whether a method decreases the risk of urinary tract infections, has an acceptable efficacy rate and aligns itself with the capabilities of the family. These themes help frame discussions between families and clinicians regarding vesicoureteral reflux management, and they can facilitate shared decision making.
