Implementation science is the study of methods to promote systematic uptake effective practices into routine care settings with broad goal ensuring that scientific discoveries realize their potential and improve people's lives. As a field, implementation includes three primary foci: (a) understanding context in which individuals will implement have strong, established evidence base; (b) developing approaches target factors may accelerate or hinder implementation; (c) conducting pragmatic trials test these approaches. Psychological has contributed substantially knowledge used science.

Abstract Background Dissemination is a critical element of the knowledge translation pathway, and necessary step to ensure research evidence adopted implemented by key end users in order improve health outcomes. However, evidence-based guidance inform dissemination activities limited. This scoping review aimed identify describe scientific literature examining strategies disseminate public related prevention non-communicable diseases. Methods Medline, PsycInfo EBSCO Search Ultimate were searched May 2021 for studies published between January 2000 search date that reported on evidence, within context Studies synthesised according four components Brownson colleagues’ Model Research (source, message, channel audience), as well study design.

Tailoring dissemination strategies to increase evidence-informed policymaking for opioid use disorder treatment: study protocol

Policy is a powerful tool for systematically altering healthcare access and quality, but the research to policy gap impedes translating evidence-based practices into public limits widespread improvements in service population health outcomes. The US opioid epidemic disproportionately impacts Medicaid members who rely on publicly funded benefits treatment including medications use disorder (MOUD). A myriad of misaligned policies evidence-use behaviors by policymakers across federal agencies, state managed care organizations limit coverage MOUD members. Dissemination strategies that improve policymakers' current evidence are critical improving reducing disparities. However, no describes key determinants or preferences, few studies have examined data-driven approaches developing dissemination enhance evidence-informed policymaking.

The “D&I Bridge”: introducing a teaching tool to define the D, the I, and the why

Implementation Science Communications, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 5(1)

Abstract Interest in learning dissemination and implementation (D&I) science is at an all-time high. As founding faculty fellows of a new center focused on D&I science, we have found that non-specialist researchers newcomers to often express confusion around the difference between D I. Relatedly, they struggle identify what their specific projects target impact public health within amorphous “black box” singular, loosely defined “research-to-practice gap.” To improve conceptual clarity enhance engagement with developed graphic—the Bridge—and accompanying glossary terms use as teaching framing tool. The Bridge depicts bridging know from knowledge do practice intention equity, it spans over four distinct, inter-related gaps: supply gap, demand methodological/scientific expertise capacity gap. gap addressed by strategies, whereas strategies. producing generalizable about D&I, developing multi-disciplinary workforce needed advance D&I. Initial feedback has been positive, this conceptualization helped inform our center’s training, project consultations, strategic planning. We believe provides useful heuristic for helping non-specialists understand differential scopes various well gaps may be methods.
