Introduction. Monitoring the usage of knowledge and evaluating results permits one to know the application of the evidence, knowledge, and attitude changes, the impact on health results, integration, and maintenance of the adopted practices. There exist weaknesses related to lack of systematization, limitation of the records, and quality of the process. This article's objective is to describe the experience generating monitoring strategies and evaluation of the results regarding the implementation of good practice guides in Spain. Topics for Reflection. In the first place, the measurement process of the results regarding the implementation of guides are reviewed, in the Best Practice Spotlight Organizations® program frame, whose tool to lead the change includes monitoring and evaluation as one of the sixth phases of the action cycle. In the second place, monitoring and evaluation strategies proposed in the literature are analyzed, highlighting the Professional Nurses Association of Ontario. Finally, the monitoring and evaluation strategies are analyzed by two Spanish institutions participating in the program, focused on the adequation of records, exploitation and indicator analysis, tools development, evaluation procedures, dissemination, and feedback mechanisms. Conclusions: The definition of monitoring and evaluation strategies planned in advance contributes to the viability of the evaluation regarding the implementation and its sustainability. Is necessary to adapt them to the context, with transversal strategies that reach the whole institution, facilitated by the institution.

Experiencia en la implantación de la Guía de prevención de caídas en Centros Comprometidos con la Excelencia en Cuidados / Implementation experience of a guideline on fall prevention in Centres Committed to Excellence in Care

OBJETIVO: Describir la progresión del grado de adherencia a las recomendaciones de la Guía «Prevención de caídas» del Programa Best Practice Spotlight Organization (BPSO®) y resultados en caídas en los Centros Comprometidos con la Excelencia en Cuidados (CCEC®). MÉTODO: Estudio cuasiexperimental pretest-postest con carácter multicéntrico desarrollado entre 2012 y 2018. Se incluye a los pacientes ≥65 años, dados de alta en las unidades de implantación de la Guía, analizando variables sociodemográficas (sexo, edad); estancia hospitalaria; valoración del riesgo de caídas al ingreso y pacientes con riesgo; plan de cuidados para la prevención de caídas e incidencia de caídas. Se han comparado los indicadores del programa CCEC® medidos en los periodos: basal (T1), de candidatura en los 3 primeros años (T2) y de sostenibilidad (T3). Se ha realizado un análisis estadístico descriptivo e inferencial. RESULTADOS: Se ha evaluado a 31.486 pacientes de 7 centros hospitalarios (T1=465; T2=14.255; T3=16.766). El 51,87% fueron hombres, con una edad media de 79,06 años. La estancia hospitalaria fue 8,15 días. La valoración del riesgo al ingreso se realizó en el 81,96% (T1=44,30%; T2=81,11%; T3=83,73%), estando en riesgo un 52,31%. Tenían planificados cuidados para prevenir caídas un 47,75% (T1=24,73%; T2=42,43%; T3=52,90%). De las 423 caídas registradas, el 62,17% no tuvieron lesiones. CONCLUSIONES: A pesar de las diferencias entre hospitales, como las características estructurales, las estrategias, los instrumentos de valoración y el ritmo en la progresión de datos, el grado de adherencia a las recomendaciones está siendo exitoso mejorando de forma generalizada. La implantación de la Guía ha permitido abordar la problemática de las caídas, produciendo cambios positivos en el proceso y favoreciendo la implantación y sostenibilidad de prácticas basadas en la evidencia

AIM: To describe the progress of implementing the «Preventing falls» Guideline of the Best Practice Spotlight Organization (BPSO®) Programme and fall outcomes in Centres Committed to Excellence in Care (CCEC®). METHOD: A Quasi-experimental study pre-post test from a multicentric approach carried out between 2012-2018. The study is focused on patients aged 65 or older, discharged from guideline implementation units, analysing sociodemographic variables (sex, age, hospitalization days; fall risk assessment on admission and patient in risk; fall prevention plan; incidence of falls. Data was compared from CCEC® programme indicators measured over the periods: baseline (T1), candidate during the first three years (T2), and sustainability (T3). Descriptive and inferential analysis was performed. RESULTS: 31,486 patients were evaluated in 7 centres (T1=465; T2=14,255; T3=16,766). Of the patients, 51.87% were men and average age was 79.06 years. Hospitalization was 8.15 days. Fall risk assessment on admission was performed in 81.96% of patients (T1=44.30%, T2=81.11%, T3=83.73%) and 52.31% patients had high risk. A prevention falls plan was registered in 47.75% of patients (T1=24.73%, T2=42.43%, T3=52.90%). Four hundred and twenty-three falls were recorded, 62.17% without injuries. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the differences between hospitals, such as structural characteristics, strategies, assessment tools and data progression pace; adherence to recommendations is proving successful, improving widely. Guideline implementation has allowed fall problems to be addressed, producing positive changes in the process and encouraging the implementation and sustainability of evidence-based nursing practice
