AHRQ Conference Grant Program (R13)

 描述（由申请人提供）：我们的目标是在2016年，2017年和2018年举办一系列面对面会议，其中患者和消费者组织和个人总结，交流和使用循证信息和工具，并有能力使用这些信息来改善医疗保健服务的结果，质量，获取和利用。 消费者循证保健联合会（CUE）成立于2003年，自成立以来一直得到AHRQ的支持，将主办拟议的年度会议，以建设消费者保健团体的能力;为消费者科学家合作伙伴提供更多了解他们的机会;并在利益攸关方之间建立关系。CUE自成立以来取得的成就使其成为消费者和患者参与循证医疗保健（EBHC）的公认领导者。美国科克伦中心（USCC）将提供主要的科学合作伙伴关系和人员配置，以协调会议。 我们正在申请一个为期三年的项目，以支持每年由CUE（一个永久赞助组织）赞助的同样的会议。我们的建议包括在2016年、2017年和2018年：（1）每月一次的CUE指导小组电话会议;（2）在华盛顿召开三次CUE指导小组会议;（3）在华盛顿召开三次为期一天的年度CUE成员会议;（4）在年度科克伦学术讨论会上举办三次研讨会。 目标受众将是有兴趣将其宣传活动纳入基本保健费用的保健消费者群体。为期一天的会员会议将包括教学会议，研讨会和讨论，并留出网络时间。会议材料将通过全体会议的幻灯片在CUE网站和社交网络工具（例如，活动期间的实时推文），两者都吸引外部观众。消费者目标群体包括CUE所接触的许多优先人群。每年将通过调查对传播和实施情况进行两次评估。 我们的目标是（1）建立在CUE的既定势头，以扩大美国消费者倡导者的能力;（2）增加越来越多的CUE成员组织和医疗保健科学家之间的合作和伙伴关系;（3）提供与EBHC相关的最新主题领域的在线和面对面教育;（4）为如何将研究证据纳入消费者活动提供沟通和方法咨询的论坛;（5）为提高医疗保健质量做出贡献;以及（6）提高美国消费者对EBHC原则的认识、参与和贡献。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Our objective is to host a series of in-person conferences in 2016, 2017, and 2018, in which evidence-based information and tools are summarized, communicated and used by patient and consumer organizations and individuals with the capability to use the information to improve the outcomes, quality, access to, and utilization of healthcare services. Consumers United for Evidence-based Healthcare (CUE), founded in 2003 and supported by AHRQ since its start, will host the proposed annual meetings to build capacity among consumer health groups; present opportunities for consumers' scientist partners to learn more about them; and establish relationship-building opportunities among stakeholders. CUE's accomplishments since its founding have made the group a recognized leader in consumer and patient engagement in evidence-based healthcare (EBHC).The United States Cochrane Center (USCC) will provide the lead scientific partnership and staffing to coordinate the meeting. We are requesting a project period of three years to support the same conferences on an annual basis, sponsored by CUE, a permanently sponsoring organization. Our proposal includes in 2016, 2017, and 2018: (1) Monthly CUE Steering Group teleconferences; (2) three CUE Steering Group Meetings in Washington, DC; (3) three day-long Annual CUE Membership Meetings in Washington, DC; (4) three workshops presented at the annual Cochrane Colloquia. The target audience will be health consumer groups interested in integrating their advocacy activities into EBHC. The day-long Membership Meeting will comprise didactic sessions, workshops, and discussion, with networking time set aside. Conference materials will be disseminated via slide casts of plenary sessions onto the CUE website and social networking tools (e.g., live tweeting during the event), both engaging external audiences. Consumer target groups include the many priority populations with which CUE engages. Dissemination and implementation will be assessed twice annually by survey. We aim to (1) build on CUE's established momentum to extend the capacity of US- based consumer advocates; (2) increase collaboration and partnerships among the growing number of CUE member organizations and healthcare scientists; (3) provide online and in-person education on up-to-date topic areas related to EBHC; (4) provide a forum for communication and methodological consultation on how to incorporate research evidence into consumer activities; (5) contribute to improving the quality of healthcare; and (6) increase awareness of, involvement in, and contribution to the principles of EBHC among US consumers.
