Identification of Physician Concerns Regarding Implementation of the Nagasaki Acute Myocardial Infarction Secondary Prevention Clinical Pathway.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Nagasaki Acute Myocardial Infarction Secondary Prevention Clinical Pathway (NASP) is a regional pathway that aims to standardize practices related to the treatment of acute myocardial infarction in order to improve patient prognoses. This study aimed to understand physician backgrounds and concerns regarding implementation of the NASP.

Methods and results

This exploratory sequential mixed-methods study was developed around the RE-AIM (reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance) framework. Following focus group interviews, the web-based, self-administered questionnaire survey with a cross-sectional study design was given to 62 physicians who practiced at acute care hospitals (ACHs), primary care hospitals (PCHs), or outpatient clinics (OCs)
