The use of implementation science theories, models, and frameworks in implementation research for medicinal products: A scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The uptake, adoption and integration of new medicines and treatment regimens within healthcare delivery can take a decade or more. Increasingly, implementation science (IS) research is being used to bridge this gap between the availability of new therapeutic evidence and its actual application in clinical practice. Little is known, however, about the quality of IS research in this area, including the degree to which theories, models and frameworks (TMFs) are being used. The objective of this study was to conduct a scoping review of the use of TMFs in implementation research involving medicinal products.

Methods

A search was conducted for English language abstracts and manuscripts describing the application of TMFs in IS studies for medicinal products. Eligible pub
