About this study

Official title: SUMAMOS EXCELENCIA Project: Assessment of Implementation of Best Practices in a National Health System (Second Edition)

There is a gap between research and clinical practice, leading to variability in decision-making. Clinical audits are an effective strategy for improving implementation of best practices. Quasi-experimental, multicentre, before and after. Primary care, hospital units and nursing homes, and the patients attended at both. Implementation of evidence-based recommendations by application of a continuous quality improvement cycle model (process of improvement by reference to a prior baseline clinical audit. Data will be collected at baseline and, during the first year of follow up, at months (3, 6, 12)

Read the detailed description

Aim: To assess the effectiveness of implementing evidence-based recommendations using a continuous quality improvement cycle model on patient outcomes and healthcare quality. Design: Quasi-experimental, multicentre, before-and-after. Methods: NHS units and Nursing Homes, patients attended by them and professionals implementing the recommendations. Intervention: implementation of evidence-based recommendation with a continuous quality improvement cycle's model (process of improvement by reference to a prior baseline clinical audit). Variables: Process and outcome criteria with respect to assessment and management of pain, management of urinary incontinence, prevention of child obesity, promotion of breastfeeding, promotion of hand hygiene, competencies in evidence-based practice, barriers to the implementation and strategies for overcoming them. Data will be collected at baseline and, during the first year of follow-up, at months 3, 6 and 12, with data on patients and indicators being drawn from clinical histories and records. Descriptive analysis and comparison of the effectiveness of the intervention by means of inferential analysis and analysis of trends across follow-up. 95% confidence level. This project is partially funded by The Spanish Centre for Evidence Based Nursing and Healthcare. Project duration 2022-2024.

This project is a second edition of The SUMAMOS EXCELENCIA Project: Assessment of Implementation of Best Practices in a National Health System (NCT03725774), with a similar design but with changes in some of the themes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Continuous quality improvement cycle modelOther

    The continuous quality improvement cycle model consist in a process of improvement by reference to a prior baseline clinical audit. It implies a local situation analysis, identifying barriers to improvements in clinical practice, and drawing up and implementing a plan of action for improving adherence to pre-established criteria. The goal is to establish interprofessional processes within the teams, in order to: examine the barriers that hinder the use of evidence in fostering best practices; and contribute to the development of implementation programmes for overcoming such obstacles.
