Guideline harmonization and implementation plan for the BETTER trial. The evidence integration and implementation process for the Building on Existing Tools to Improve Chronic Disease Prevention and Screening in Family Practice (BETTER) trial. The triangle in the centre of the diagram is an extension of the ‘knowledge creation funnel’ in the knowledge-to-action cycle [10]. In our process, there is knowledge synthesis with each funnel representing existing literature captured in high-quality clinical practice guidelines. This is then contextually integrated for each patient’s family history and modifiable risk factors. The side bar shows the structured evidence review process of the clinical working group. The boxes around the circumference of the cycle refer to the steps for implementing the recommendations and tools in both the practice- and patient-level interventions of the BETTER trial.
