4 Translational Tool A strategy, program, mechanism, tool used to translate evidence into practice. Evidence = processes of care directly linked to health outcomes Although final process always involves patients/persons, behavior change targets of translational tools can vary.

7 Patient Behavior Change van de Meer V et al. Ann Intern Med 2009;151: Background Despite the availability of monitoring tools and effective therapy, asthma control is suboptimal and long term management falls far short of the goals set in the guidelines Self monitoring, education, and specific medical care are important aspects in improving the lives of patients with asthma However, many patients with mild or moderate persistent asthma do not attend checkups regularly or visit their physician with symptoms of the disease. Internet technology is increasingly seen as an appealing tool to support self management for patients with chronic disease. Patient Behavior Change van der Meer V et al.

11 Classifying Tools 3 Dimensions Exemplars OUTLINE Patients: Decision Support Clinicians: Practice Guidelines Clinician Behavior Change Campbell SM et al. N Engl J Med 2009;361: Background In 2004, the U.K. government introduced a pay forperformance scheme with 136 indicators for family practices. Payments make up approximately 25% of family practitioners income, and 99.6% of family practitioners participated in the pay for performance scheme, which is voluntary. Clinician Behavior Change Campbell SM et al. N Engl J Med 2009;361: Problem and Intervention What is the evidence?

Cost: person hours Feasibility: buy in; participation Complexity: varies Summary of evidence ineffective in isolation Ideal uses Target behaviors single, simple actions Target barriers knowledge/attitudes Conclusion: it s all about implementation Practice Guidelines seem to be most effective for acute care conditions when quality of evidence is superior when compatible with existing values when decision making complexity is low when desired performance/behavior is clearly understood when new skills or organizational support is not necessary for behavior change 13

15 Classifying Tools 3 Dimensions Exemplars OUTLINE Patients: Decision Support Clinicians: Practice Guidelines Community: CBPR Public Behavior Change Manandhar DS et al. Lancet 2004;364: Background In India, neonatal mortality accounts for up to 70% of infant mortality. Most deaths happen at home, and many could be avoided with changes in antenatal, delivery, and newborn care practices. Primary and secondary health care systems have difficulties in reaching poor rural residents. In Makwanpur district, Nepal, for example, 90% of women give birth at home, and trained attendance at delivery is uncommon. Translational Tool: CBPR 15

16 Public Behavior Change Manandhar DS et al. Lancet 2004;364: Problem and Intervention What is the evidence being translated? Prenatal/postnatal care What is the quality gap? see Table 4 control group Is the quality gap linked to the outcome gap? yes Tool: CBPR Target: pregnant women PRECEDE: knowledge; decision support; social support Platform: CBPR; facilitators Results Public Behavior Change Tools Predisposing Health Fairs Mass Media Outreach Health Coaches Reinforcing Reminders Opinion Leaders Conditional Payments Co Payments Enabling Built Environment Self Efficacy 16

17 SUMMARY Guidelines/Knowledge/Awareness is a necessary starting point, but rarely sufficient to create behavior change Think about an intervention strategy that uses multiple tools across the spectrum of predisposing, reinforcing and enabling factors depending on the relevant theory Tools don t work by themselves.
