This article elaborates the concept, meaning and role of clinical pathway, discusses development stages and implementation effects of clinical pathway at home and abroad, and proposes that clinical pathway has been developed very well abroad, but it still has many problems in domestic gtowth which needs to be put into effect with Single-DRGs system in combination.
The consolidated framework for implementation research (CFIR) extracted, analyzed and integrated many published theories, frameworks and models of implementation research, and provided a comprehensive and practical theoretical framework for researchers to explore the influencing factors in the implementation of evidence. This paper introduces the origin, core content and application examples of CFIR in evidence-based nursing practice, in order to provide reference for researchers to use CFIR to carry out implementation research.
To standardize and improve the reporting quality of implementation studies, BMJ published the standards for reporting implementation studies (StaRI). This paper introduces the background and process of StaRI development, and interprets the core content of StaRI. It is expected that StaRI will provide support for domestic researchers to carry out implementation studies and writing implementation research reports.
Evidence-based evidence translated into health care services requires three conversion processes, preclinical research-clinical research-implementation research, which might take a very long time. In order to speed up the process of research results translated into daily medical practice and health policy, an effectiveness-implementation hybrid design combining the effectiveness research of clinical and implementation research was emerging. This paper introduced the concept, classification and application of effectiveness-implementation hybrid design, to provide references for researchers in this area.
ObjectiveTo analyze the problems in the construction of internal control in colleges and universities, and to explore the implementation path suitable for colleges and universities. MethodsThe relevant documents on the internal control construction of universities at home and abroad were retrieved, and the case study of the implementation path of the internal control system construction of C university was analyzed by using the methods of expert interviews, flow charts and walk-through tests. ResultsThe internal control system of colleges and universities takes digital intelligence as the technical support to explore the implementation path of "external standard rule riveting point, internal standard post entry process; data standardization, process progress visualization; speed of operation tracking, data backtracking to find deviation; business data is all smooth, performance evaluation to promote management", optimize the process and improve the system, real-time extraction of operation data for key projects to track, and shorten the business operation time by more than half. ConclusionThe case university carries out empirical research on the internal control system, based on the principle of effective implementation, makes full use of the digital intelligence technology to extract the whole process data of the business system across the system, and realizes the efficient collaboration, early warning and evaluation, and scientific decision-making of the "digital intelligence" platform.
The consolidated framework for implementation research (CFIR) is one of the most commonly used theoretical frameworks for implementation science. The updated CFIR was optimized based on the original version. The background, process and contents of the updated CFIR were introduced, and the domains and constructs of the updated CFIR were interpreted in this article. We analyzed the similarities and differences of the updated CFIR compared with the original CFIR, in order to provide methodological references for Chinese researchers to explore the determinants of implementation.
To standardize and improve the reporting quality of digital health implementation research, the Geneva Digital Health Hub has developed the guidelines and checklist for reporting digital health implementations (iCHECK-DH). This paper introduces the background of iCHECK-DH and based on practical application experiences, emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration. It focuses on economic cost-effectiveness and local policy guidance in the clinical implementation of digital health technologies. This will provide valuable insights for Chinese scholars when writing implementation reports on digital health technologies.
Implementation science is a new field that aims to scale up and sustain the application of evidence-based practice. It primarily studies the dissemination, adoption, evaluation, and improvement, etc. of the implementation process of evidence-based practice. In recent years, tens of implementation theories, frameworks and models have been developed. We systematically collected 41 of them and classified them into several categories. The first is the classical theories which are extended from the traditional social science and used as the predecessors of the implementation science. The second category is the implementation science frameworks/models that are derived from the first category, and can be divided into four groups: 1) the implementation models that explain the law of a certain aspect in the implementation; 2) the implementation determinants frameworks that summarize and classify the implementation determinants; 3) the process models that discuss how research translates into practice; 4) the evaluation models that evaluate the implementation and outcome. The implementation science theories can provide implementation researchers with valuable guidance for development of implementation strategies and evaluation of implementation outcomes.
Effectiveness-implementation hybrid designs can test the effectiveness of interventions and the outcomes of implementation strategies concurrently and accelerate the transformation of research results into routine practice. This paper introduced three types of effectiveness-implementation hybrid designs and corresponding reporting guidelines, including standards for reporting implementation studies, cluster randomized design and CONSORT 2010, stepped-wedge cluster randomized design and extended version CONSORT 2018, qualitative research and COREQ reporting guideline, and provide references for domestic researchers to produce research reports on effectiveness-implementation hybrid design.
Objective The ultimate goal of developing guidelines is for using them in clinical practice. In this study, an implementation evaluation tool was developed to promote the overall evaluation of guidelines and to improve their promotion and implementation. Methods The research group set up a team to formulate and establish a guideline implementation evaluation tool, through preliminary research, interviews, a systematic review of relevant literature, two expert consensus meetings and two Delphi expert consensus meetings to evaluate the guideline implementation tool. Experts were invited to give opinions and grades on the fields, items and overall implementation evaluation method of the tool. Results The evaluation tool for the implementation of guidelines included 5 fields, accessibility, communicability, performability, recognizability and applicability, with a total of 7 items. The scale-level CVIs in two rounds of Delphi expert consensus were 0.91 and 0.93. We collected opinions and suggestions and made some revisions and insertions without deleting any items based on the parameter that no items fulfilled the standard if mean <3.5, coefficient of variation >15% and I-CVI<0.78. Conclusion In this study, in order to provide a standard and method for the evaluation of guideline implementation, a guideline implementation evaluation tool has been developed and evaluated by clinically-related physicians and guideline formulation methodology experts. The guideline implementation evaluation tool presents satisfactory face and content validity. Empirical research is needed to verify the tool’s performance in evaluating guideline implementation.
