ABSTRACT
RATIONALE Audit and feedback is an evidence-based implementation strategy, but studies reporting the use of theory to guide design elements are limited. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:
Within the context of a programme of research aiming to improve the implementation of supported asthma self-management in UK primary care (IMPlementing IMProved Asthma self-management as RouTine [IMP2 ART]), we aimed to design and develop theoretically-informed audit and feedback that highlighted supported asthma self-management provision and areas for improvement in primary care general practices.METHOD:
Aligned with the Medical Research Council (MRC) complex intervention framework, the audit and feedback was developed in three phases (1) Development literature and theory exploration, and prototype audit and feedback design; (2) Feasibility eliciting feedback on the audit and feedback from general practice staff (n = 9); (3) Prepiloting delivering the audit and feedback within the IMP2 ART implementation strategy (incorporating patient and professional resources and an asthma review template) and eliciting clinician feedback (n = 9).RESULTS:
Audit and feedback design was guided by and mapped to existing literature suggestions and theory (e.g., Theoretical Domains Framework, Behaviour Change Technique Taxonomy). Feedback on the prototype audit and feedback confirmed feasibility but identified some refinements (a need to highlight supporting self-management and importance of asthma action plans). Prepiloting informed integration with other IMP2 ART programme strategies (e.g., patient resources and professional education).CONCLUSION:
We conclude that a multistage development process including theory exploration and mapping, contributed to the design and delivery of the audit and feedback. Aligned with the MRC framework, the IMP2 ART strategy (incorporating the audit and feedback) is now being tested in a UK-wide cluster randomised controlled trial.Palavras-chave
