Table 5 Recommendations for raising the profile of research on de-implementation in health
From: Studying de-implementation in health: an analysis of funded research grants
Recommendation | Examples |
|---|---|
1. Raise awareness and interest in studying de-implementation among the research community | • Conferences (e.g., Preventing Overdiagnosis), conference sessions • Webinars, commentaries |
2. Develop specific funding opportunities on de-implementation research | • Reducing Overscreening in Breast, Cervical and Colorectal Cancers among Older Adults (PA-17-110) |
3. Synthesize and operationalize de-implementation terms, concepts, measures, and outcomes | • State-of-the-art conference • Consensus meetings |
4. Collaborate with stakeholders involved in ongoing efforts (e.g., initiatives, campaigns, tools, resources) to study de-implementation in health | • Choosing Wisely® • Canadian Deprescribing Network (CaDeN) |
5. Leverage forthcoming policy and practice changes as an opportunity to conduct embedded research on de-implementation | • Oregon Health Insurance Experiment • Opioid crisis in the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States • Antibiotic resistance crisis |
