Studying the implementation of exercise oncology interventions: a path forward.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction/purpose

Extensive scientific evidence supports exercise benefits after a cancer diagnosis and the field now needs to focus on elucidating effective strategies for implementing exercise evidence-based interventions (EBIs) for cancer survivors.

Methods

This paper brings together three implementation efforts to describe pragmatic observations and strategies when implementing exercise oncology EBIs in non-research settings. From these projects, we report on common implementation barriers and facilitators. We then mapped these observations and strategies on to the phases and processes described in the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, and Sustainment (EPIS) Framework.

Results

The first implementation project used key stakeholders' perspectives to devel
