[From evidence to practice: The Disemination and Implementation Science in primary care]

Dissemination and Implementation Science focuses on bridging the gap between scientific research and its practical application in the real world. By identifying and promoting effective strategies, the Science of Dissemination and Implementation disseminates and implements evidence-based interventions in healthcare settings, taking into account the needs, barriers, context, resources, and end users. This special article introduces and debates the most recent advances in this field, highlighting key approaches, theoretical frameworks, as well as specific challenges and opportunities applied to primary and community care. Additionally, concrete examples tailored to the Spanish context are presented. Given the nascent state of the use of the Dissemination and Implementation Science in Spain, the authors recommend strategically adopting this approach and its principles in primary and community care to expedite the adoption of effective interventions that promote health.
