    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Science
    Topics: Evaluation Frameworks, models, theories
    This guide provides a number of prompts to help identify the steps you need to take to a) demonstrate that a health service, program or policy innovation works, b) understand the conditions under which it was successful (or unsuccessful) and c) where appropriate, identify how to scale up an innovation for greatest impact.

  • Developing theory-informed behaviour change interventions to implement evidence into practice: a systematic approach using the Theoretical Domains Framework

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Science
    Topics: Frameworks, models, theories Intervention development
    This resource outlines a four-step systematic method for developing an intervention designed to change clinical practice based on a theoretical framework. The method of development provides a systematic framework that could be used by others developing complex implementation interventions. While this framework should be iteratively adjusted and refined to suit other contexts and settings, we ... Read more

  • Making sense of implementation theories, models and frameworks

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Science
    Topics: Frameworks, models, theories
    The aim of this article is to propose a taxonomy that distinguishes between different categories of theories, models and frameworks in implementation science, to facilitate appropriate selection and application of relevant approaches in implementation research and practice and to foster cross-disciplinary dialogue among implementation researchers.

  • An electronic decision support-based complex intervention to improve management of cardiovascular risk in primary health care: a cluster randomised trial (INTEGRATE)

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Practice
    Topics: Context Practice examples
    The aim of this study was to determine whether a multifaceted primary health care intervention better controlled cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in patients with high risk of CVD than usual care. The study concluded that the INTEGRATE intervention was not broadly implemented and did not improve CVD risk management in participating Australian general practices. ... Read more

  • What Can Implementation Science Do for You? Key Success Stories from the Field

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Practice
    Topics: Context Practice examples
    This paper describes implementation science success stories involving health interventions, programs, guidelines and policies, where the role of implementation science made a substantial, replicated, and sustained health impact across broad population groups.

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Practice
    Topics: Introductory
    This guide can be used as a tool to help you critically think about where projects may fit on the translational research continuum, and with this in mind, how best to refine your research question and methods. The guide provides a number of prompts to help identify the steps you need to take to: Demonstrate ... Read more

  • Implementation Science to Advance Care Delivery: A Primer for Pharmacists and Other Health Professionals

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Science
    Topics: Introductory
    This primer provides an overview of implementation science principles for pharmacists and other health care providers interested in accelerating practice transformation to improve health care delivery and, ultimately, patient care.

  • An Introduction to Implementation Science for the Non-Specialist

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Science
    Topics: Introductory
    In this paper the authors aim to introduce implementation science principles to non-specialist investigators, administrators, and policymakers seeking to become familiar with this emerging field. This introduction is based on published literature and the authors’ experience as researchers in the field, as well as extensive service as implementation science grant reviewers.

  • Implementation in action: A guide to implementing evidence-informed programs and practices

  • Guidance for conducting feasibility and pilot studies for implementation trials

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Practice
    Topics: Implementation strategies Study design
    This paper aims to provide broad guidance for the conduct of feasibility and pilot studies for implementation trials. Feasibility and pilot studies for implementation trials are similar to those for intervention trials, but focus on developing implementation strategies, refining research methods and undertaking preliminary testing of implementation strategies. This slightly different focus often presents challenges for researchers who are new ... Read more

  • Revisiting time to translation: implementation of evidence-based practices (EBPs) in cancer control

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Science
    Topics: Research translation
    Estimates of the implementation of evidence-based practices average around 17 years. This study revisits the pathway to translation for cancer control evidence-based practices, and evaluates variation in the translational pathway of these practices. 

  • A qualitative study of design stakeholders’ views of developing and implementing a registry-based learning health system

    Type of resource:
    Science Expertise: Beginner Resource category: Practice
    Topics: Barriers and facilitators Partnerships Stakeholder engagement
    The concept of a learning health system has been enthusiastically embraced in healthcare, but relatively few real-life examples exist. This article, led by Prof Mary Dixon-Woods, uses stakeholder interviews to examine views on designing and implementing a US-based learning health system for cystic fibrosis.
