Objectives: A systematic review of the effectiveness and costs different guideline development, dissemination, implementation strategies wasundertaken. The resource implications these was estimated, a framework for deciding when it is efficient to develop introduce clinical guidelines developed.
Background. Increasing recognition of the failure to translate research findings into practice has led greater awareness importance using active dissemination and implementation strategies. Although there is a growing body evidence about effectiveness different strategies, this not easily accessible policy makers professionals. Objectives. To identify, appraise, synthesize systematic reviews professional educational or quality assurance interventions improve care. Research design. An...
In an interrupted time series (ITS) design, data are collected at multiple instances over before and after intervention to detect whether the has effect significantly greater than underlying secular trend. We critically reviewed methodological quality of ITS designs using studies included in two systematic reviews (a review mass media interventions a guideline dissemination implementation strategies).Quality criteria were developed, abstracted from each study. If primary study analyzed...
Abstract Background In the field of implementation research, there is an increased interest in use theory when designing research studies involving behavior change. 2003, we initiated a series five to establish scientific rationale for interventions translate findings into clinical practice by exploring performance number different, commonly used, overlapping behavioral theories and models. We reflect on strengths weaknesses methods, theories, consider where these methods sit alongside range...
Abstract The open-ended and payment scale approaches to eliciting willingness pay (WTP) valuations are compared. Use of the led a higher response rate, rate completion WTP question, mean median values, stronger association between ability R2 in regression analysis on several independent variables. Taking these results combination, it can be inferred that technique leads more valid values than use approach.
Abstract In a prospective population-based cohort study, we assessed whether bone mineral density (BMD) measurements of perimenopausal women and other risk factors for osteoporosis are predictive subsequent fracture. Women aged 47-51 years chosen randomly from population register who underwent measurement 2 previously were followed up by questionnaire to assess the 2-year incidence any self-reported fractures. We found that 44 women, out 1857 completed questionnaire, sustained at least one...
