ABSTRACT
Changing health care delivery systems and processes of care to improve health care quality is complex. What is done (intervention) is equally important as how it is done (implementation) and where it is done (context). Furthermore, it has been consistently observed that among groups participating in multisite quality improvement (QI) efforts and implementation studies, significant heterogeneity in the improvements is seen. Our objective is to provide a step-by-step guide to assist both researchers and groups practicing QI on the frontlines in addressing context in planning, implementing, and disseminating their QI and implementation interventions. We discuss in depth a sample of the >60 available dissemination and implementation frameworks that consider context. We then provide an approach to addressing context in QI and implementation initiatives and discuss an application of this approach, using a published study as an example. Finally, we discuss next steps for the field of context and implementation science. Data from networks of health systems working together on QI are needed on both network-wide rates of process and outcome measures. Also needed are segmented/stratified data that inform our understanding of the influence of context on successful implementation in subgroups. Finally, multisite prospective studies are needed to develop an in-depth understanding of how specific context and implementation factors affect the successful spread of proven interventions.
