Implementation science measures are rarely used by stakeholders. This study defined pragmatic measures through literature reviews and stakeholder interviews, identifying 47 key characteristics for practical use in clinical settings.

Area of Science:

  • Implementation Science
  • Health Services Research
  • Program Evaluation

Background:

  • Implementation science measures are underutilized by stakeholders for clinical program improvement.
  • Understanding what makes implementation measures pragmatic for community settings is lacking.
  • This study aimed to operationalize the pragmatic measures construct driven by clinical stakeholders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a stakeholder-driven operationalization of the pragmatic measures construct.
  • To identify dimensions of pragmatic measures relevant to community settings.
  • To inform the development of a rating system for implementation science measures.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted a systematic literature review of PsycINFO and PubMed to identify dimensions of pragmatic measures.
Keywords:

  • Performed interviews with an international panel of 7 stakeholders to gather perspectives on pragmatic measures.
  • Synthesized findings from the literature review and stakeholder interviews.

    • Main Results:

    • Identified 47 short statements describing pragmatic measures, such as feasibility, low cost, and brevity.
    • Revealed significant overlap between literature-derived and stakeholder-identified terms for pragmatic constructs.
    • Highlighted unique terms from both literature and stakeholder perspectives.

    Conclusions:

    • Stakeholder perspectives are crucial for understanding criteria measuring the pragmatic construct.
    • Future research will involve stakeholders in prioritizing dimensions of the pragmatic construct.
    • Results will inform a rating system to enhance the use of implementation science measures in practice.
