Introduction

We define clinical practice guideline (CPGs) implementability as the characteristics of the guideline that reflect the extent to which it is likely to be adopted in clinical practice. Our objectives were to create a comprehensive and evidence-informed framework of guideline implementability (CFGI).

Methods

A mixed-methods approach was used. Based on a systematic literature review of six databases as the foundation, the initial version of the CFGI was created, followed by external consultations to gather feedback and natural language processing tool-assisted classification to refine the framework. To get external validation of the CFGI from expert feedback at an international conference.

Results
