Summary
Adapting evidence-based interventions (EBIs) for chronic disease self-management requires a planned approach. Intervention Mapping (IM) provides a framework to effectively tailor EBIs for new contexts while preserving core components.
Area of Science:
- Public Health
- Health Behavior
- Chronic Disease Management
Background:
- Self-management is crucial for individuals with chronic conditions.
- Existing evidence-based interventions (EBIs) for self-management require adaptation for new contexts.
- A systematic approach is needed to adapt EBIs effectively.
Purpose of the Study:
- To describe and demonstrate a planned approach for adapting EBIs.
- To promote self-management ability in community-dwelling individuals with chronic conditions.
- To increase the intervention's fit within a specific context using Intervention Mapping (IM).
Main Methods:
- Utilized Intervention Mapping (IM) as a framework for adaptation.
- Conducted a case study in the Flemish primary care context.
- Detailed contextual analysis, intervention aims, content, sequence, and scope were presented.
Main Results:
- Intervention Mapping (IM) facilitated adaptation of EBIs for self-management in chronic disease.
- The adapted intervention was tailored to the Flemish primary care setting.
- The process involved a contextual analysis and defined intervention parameters.
Conclusions:
- Intervention Mapping (IM) offers a robust framework for adapting EBIs.
- This approach preserves essential intervention components while ensuring contextual relevance.
- The case study serves as a model for public health professionals adapting EBIs.
