Background Undiagnosed and untreated hypertension is a main driver of cardiovascular disease and disproportionately affects persons living with HIV (PLHIV) in low- and middle-income countries. Across sub-Saharan Africa, guideline application to screen and manage hypertension among PLHIV is inconsistent due to poor service readiness, low health worker motivation, and limited integration of hypertension screening and management within HIV care services. In Mozambique, where the adult HIV prevalence is over 13%, an estimated 39% of adults have hypertension. As the only scaled chronic care service in the county, the HIV treatment platform presents an opportunity to standardize and scale hypertension care services. Low-cost, multi-component systems-level strategies such as the Systems Analysis and Improvement Approach (SAIA) have been found effective at integrating hypertension and HIV services to improve the effectiveness of hypertension care delivery for PLHIV, reduce drop-offs in care, a

Background Scientific investigation of how to sustain the implementation of evidence-based interventions (EBI) is emerging. Sustaining the implementation of EBIs helps ensure their effects on improving health endure. External policy or practice agencies, such as government health departments, are often tasked with supporting individual organisations with sustaining their delivery of EBIs, for example, through financing, training or the provision of other supports. However, to our knowledge, the approaches taken by policy and practice agencies to support the sustainment of EBIs have not been consolidated, categorised and described as a typology. Main body To improve conceptual clarity and support both research and practice, we developed an initial working typology of the practical approaches to sustain implementation of EBIs (i.e. sustainment) in order to improve long term health from the perspective of these agencies. The working typology includes three broad approaches. The first, ter

Mashup Score: 1AcademyHealth's Early Career Investigator Award in Quality & Value - 2 month(s) ago
The AcademyHealth Quality & Value Interest Group (QVIG) invites submission of abstracts for podium presentation at its session associated with the 2024 Annual Research Meeting (ARM) in Baltimore, MD. Abstracts previously submitted to the AcademyHealth ARM call for abstracts are welcome. This Early Career Investigator Award (ECIA) in Quality & Value call for abstracts is for eligible early career researchers. Submitting/presenting individuals must be either: 1) currently enrolled as a doctoral student, 2) within three years of completion of a doctoral degree, OR 3) currently in a postdoctoral fellowship position. The ECIA recipients will receive complimentary ARM registration, a plaque, and a $375 travel stipend thanks to the sponsorship of the Mayo Clinic Robert D. and Patricia E.

Mashup Score: 27Leveraging artificial intelligence to advance implementation science: potential opportunities and cautions - Implementation Science - 2 month(s) ago
Background The field of implementation science was developed to address the significant time delay between establishing an evidence-based practice and its widespread use. Although implementation science has contributed much toward bridging this gap, the evidence-to-practice chasm remains a challenge. There are some key aspects of implementation science in which advances are needed, including speed and assessing causality and mechanisms. The increasing availability of artificial intelligence applications offers opportunities to help address specific issues faced by the field of implementation science and expand its methods. Main text This paper discusses the many ways artificial intelligence can address key challenges in applying implementation science methods while also considering potential pitfalls to the use of artificial intelligence. We answer the questions of “why” the field of implementation science should consider artificial intelligence, for “what” (the purpose and methods), a
