Methods and Implementation Core

方法和实施核心是计划项目的中心组织结构， 为三个相互关联的研究项目的日常执行和实施提供了基础。 这将确保最有效和最有效的战略，以协调研究项目，管理 资源，减少重复和冗余，确保质量控制，实现征聘权责发生制， 保留，减轻参与者负担，提高合作科学家的能力和凝聚力 并最大限度地提高科学生产力。 该核心的具体目标是： 1.提供基础设施，并确保三个研究方法的实施质量 项目 2.为三个研究项目提供一致的分析支持， 创新的统计方法，以解决每个研究项目的目标，同时强调 检查和探索生命结束和丧亲护理的连续性随时间的变化。 3.为方便将研究项目的结果纳入科学文献， 并通过科学会议向不同的跨学科受众传播。 4.促进研究团队之间的协调、沟通、合作和科学生产力。 核心的目标将通过七项职能来实现：（1）培养和维护项目与临终关怀环境的联系;（2）招募和保留项目参与者;（3）数据管理，包括数据收集、录入、清理和审计活动;（4）与机构审查委员会的项目联络，协调人类受试者保证和数据以及安全监测监督;（5）提供统计服务和分析咨询;（6）促进项目结果和产品的传播;以及（7）协调沟通和规划，以加强三个研究项目小组的联系。

The Methods and Implementation Core is the central organizing structure for the Program Project and provides the basis for the day to day execution and implementation of three interrelated research projects. This will assure the most efficient and effective strategy to coordinate the research projects, manage resources, decrease duplication and redundancy, assure quality control, achieve recruitment accrual and retention, lessen participant burden, increase capacity and cohesion among the collaborating scientists across the research teams and maximize scientific productivity. The specific aims of the core are: 1. To provide the infrastructure and assure quality for methods implementation across the three research projects. 2. To provide consistent analytic support across the three research projects that utilize traditional and innovative statistical methods to address the aims of each research project, emphasizing both examination and exploration of change over time for the continuum of end of life and bereavement care. 3. To facilitate the dissemination of research project findings into the scientific literature, resource websites and through scientific meetings to diverse interdisciplinary audiences. 4. To facilitate coordination, communication, collaboration and scientific productivity among the research teams. The aims ofthe Core will be accomplished through seven functions: (1) cultivation and maintenance of the project link with the hospice settings; (2) recruitment and retention of project participants; (3) data management including data collection, entry, cleaning, and audit activities; (4) project liaison to the institutional review board, coordination of human subject assurances and data and safety monitoring oversight; (5) provision of statistical services and analytical consultation; (6) facilitation ofthe dissemination of project findings and products; and (7) coordination of communication and planning to enhance linkage of the three research project teams.
