营养学的艺术和科学植根于研究，但临床营养师一般不参与研究过程。焦点小组方法被用来确定临床营养师的看法，将研究纳入临床实践，并确定参与研究的潜在障碍。在与50名注册营养师和3名营养学实习生的9个焦点小组会议中，与会者认识到研究结果在他们的实践中发挥的重要性。讨论了发起和进行研究的障碍，如缺乏时间和舒适度低，并提出了解决这些障碍的可能办法。与学术营养师或研究导师的合作被认为是增加研究过程参与的有用和现实的途径。据参与者说，增加参与研究也可以通过设施内的支持性行政结构、支持研究过程的临床管理以及营养学工作人员之间的合作来促进。这一定性调查的结果表明，临床实践和研究的成功整合的核心原则是合作，在营养学部门，跨层次的设施，特别是临床和研究为导向的注册营养师之间。
The art and science of dietetics are rooted in research, yet clinical dietitians do not generally participate hi the research process. Focus group methodology was used to identify clinical dietitians' perceptions about incorporating research into clinical practice and to identify potential barriers to participation in research. In a series of 9 focus group sessions with 50 registered dietitians and 3 dietetic interns, attendees recognized the importance that research findings play in their practice. Barriers such as lack of time and low comfort levels with initiating and conducting research were discussed, and possible solutions to these barriers were suggested. Collaboration with academic dietitians or with research mentors was viewed as a useful and realistic pathway to increased participation in the research process. According to participants, increased involvement in research could also be facilitated by a supportive administrative structure within the facility, clinical management that is supportive of the research process, and collaboration among members of the dietetics staff. The findings of this qualitative investigation indicate that the central tenet of successful integration of clinical practice and research is collaboration-within dietetics departments, across the strata of facilities, and in particular, between clinical and research-oriented registered dietitians.
