American Psychological Association Best Practices Dissemination Network

描述（由申请人提供）：在开发和确定具有已证实疗效或有效性的治疗、实践和政策方面，健康研究取得了重大进展;然而，在将这些发现转化为能够使患者和社区受益的真实的世界环境方面，进展甚微。实施以患者为中心，以证据为基础的干预措施付诸实践一直很低，部分原因是被动的，无效的传播结果的医疗保健提供者，决策者，社区领导人和消费者。美国心理学会建议建立一个最佳实践传播网络（BPDN），目的是传播有效的以患者为中心的医疗保健干预措施，以改善服务不足的健康优先人群的健康，例如种族/民族人群，健康差异人群的男性。宣传运动将侧重于烟草依赖和肥胖，这两个国家卫生优先条件是造成健康差距人口慢性病和死亡率的重要原因。具体目标是：1）在阿帕内建立并维持一个持续的合作基础设施网络，以传播以患者为中心的循证成果研究，重点关注服务不足人群的健康优先需求，2）设计并实施两项针对心理学家和其他协会成员的烟草依赖和肥胖症的传播活动，他们（a）提供直接护理和服务，（B）从事教育，培训和专业发展，以及（c）负责方案和政策的制定; 3）评估使用传播外联战略的程度，例如，各种社交媒体的使用和排序与传统知识转让机制、影响接受度和参与度的对比; 4）确定促使受援国有意采用和实施有效的共享做法的因素，以及它们为逐步吸收和使用所需的培训和技术援助需求。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Significant progress has been made in health research on developing and identifying treatments, practices, and policies with demonstrated efficacy or effectiveness; however, little progress has been made in translating these findings into real world settings where they can benefit patients and communities. The implementation of patient-centered, evidence-based interventions into practice has been low due in part to passive, ineffective dissemination of the findings to healthcare providers, policy makers, community leaders and consumers. The American Psychological Association proposes to develop a Best Practices Dissemination Network (BPDN) for the purpose of disseminating effective patient-centered healthcare interventions to improve the health of underserved health priority populations, e.g. racial/ethnic populations, men from health disparity populations. Dissemination campaigns will focus on tobacco dependence and obesity, two national health priority conditions that contribute significantly to chronic illnesses and mortality among health disparity populations. Specific aims are to: 1) Establish and maintain an ongoing collaborative infrastructure network within the APA for the dissemination of patient-centered, evidence-based outcomes research focused on health priority needs of underserved populations, 2) Design and implement two dissemination campaigns each on tobacco dependence and obesity targeted to psychologists and other association members who (a) provide direct care and services, (b) are engaged in education, training and professional development and (c) are responsible for program and policy development; 3) Assess the extent to which dissemination outreach strategies used, e.g., the use and sequencing of various social media versus traditional knowledge transfer mechanisms, impact receptivity and engagement and 4) Identify factors contributing to the intention of recipients to adopt and implement effective practices shared and the training and technical assistance needs they require to move towards uptake and use.
