Table 3 Revised PARIHS framework for a task-oriented approach to implementation: SI = function of E, C, F

E: Evidence and EBP Characteristics

• Research and published guidelines

• Clinical experiences and perceptions

• Patient experiences, needs, and preferences

• Local practice information

• Characteristics of the targeted EBP:

   • Relative advantage

   • Observability

   • Compatibility

   • Complexity

   • Trialability

   • Design quality and packaging

   • Costs

C: Contextual Readiness for Targeted EBP Implementation

• Leadership support

• Receptivity to the targeted innovation/change

F: Facilitation

Role of facilitator:

• Purpose, external and/or internal role

• Expectations and activities

• Skills and attributes of facilitator

Other implementation interventions suggested per site diagnostic assessment

or relevant sources (e.g., prior research/literature and supplementary theories)

and used by the Facilitator and others

• Related to E

• Related to C

• Other

SI: Successful Implementation

• Implementation plan and its realization

• EBP innovation uptake: uptake of clinical interventions and/or delivery system interventions

• Patient and organizational outcomes achievement
