Developing an implementation intervention, and identifying strategies for integrating health innovations in routine practice: A case study of the implementation of an insulin patient decision aid.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Implementation, which is defined as the process of getting evidence-based innovation to be utilised is critical in ensuring innovation is being integrated into real-world practice. The way an implementation intervention (i.e., a bundle of strategies to facilitate implementation) is developed has an impact on the types of strategies chosen, and whether they are relevant to the implementation setting to exert their effects. However, literature pertaining to development of intervention or detailed descriptions of implementation processes are scarce. This study aims to report the development of an implementation intervention to integrate the use of an evidence-based innovation in routine practice, using a Malaysian insulin patient decision aid (PDA) as an exemplar.
