The uptake of artificial intelligence (AI) in health care is at an early stage. Recent studies have shown a lack AI-specific implementation theories, models, or frameworks that could provide guidance for how to translate the potential AI into daily practices. This protocol provides outline first 5 years research program seeking address this knowledge-practice gap through collaboration and co-design between researchers, professionals, patients, industry stakeholders.The part focuses on two specific objectives. objective develop theoretically informed framework can be applied facilitate such routine practice. second carry out empirical studies, guided by implementation, generate learning enhanced knowledge operational insights guide further refinement framework. addresses third objective, which apply developed clinical practice order regional capacity practical resources, competencies, organizational structure required implementation; however, beyond scope protocol.This will use logic model development methodological planning evaluating systems support building its divided time-separated stages, with focus theory-driven coproduced development. activities are based both development, using existing theory literature reviews, method means investigations. involve other stakeholders create multi-perspective understanding.The project started July 1, 2021, Stage 1 activities, including overview, stakeholder mapping, impact cases; we then proceed 2 activities. continue until June 30, 2026.There need advance evidence requirements care, as well opportunity bring together from introduction, evaluation literature. Therefore, program, intend build understanding, theoretical approaches, should approached increase likelihood successful widespread application practice.PRR1-10.2196/34920.
