Implementation science is a growing field, affecting disciplines such as nutrition and dietetics. The Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework is an evaluation framework used to assess outcomes of interventions. The Practical, Robust Implementation and Sustainability Model (PRISM) is an extension of RE-AIM, further assessing contextual factors. This paper reviews the RE-AIM framework's composition and history, its application in nutrition research and practice, and its implications for future endeavors of nutrition and dietetics. Sources of information contributing to the findings of this narrative review include systematic reviews, original research articles, and web-based resources. Articles were grouped by purpose, area of specialization, and framework use. Within each group, studies were analyzed by examining the application of RE-AIM and findings yielded from each study. Synthesis of these articles revealed many systematic reviews covering the use of RE-AIM and PRISM in clinical and community interventions. Whereas RE-AIM has been thoroughly used to evaluate nutrition interventions in clinical and community settings, PRISM has been underused, specifically in community-based research. Additionally, both frameworks have consistent use in the evaluation of programs but are found to be underused in program design and implementation. With more consistent use across settings and phases, RE-AIM and PRISM frameworks will contribute to the field of implementation science, informing best clinical practices for dietary interventions, as well as the applicability and scalability of public health interventions.
