The NIH Pragmatic Trials Collaboratory will offer a full-day workshop at the 15th Annual Conference on the Science of Dissemination and Implementation in Health in Washington, DC. The workshop, “Dissemination & Implementation Research Methods and Embedded Pragmatic Trials: Strategies for Designing Studies That Inform Care for Diverse Populations,” will introduce concepts in the design, conduct, and implementation of pragmatic clinical trials embedded in healthcare systems.
The learning objectives of the workshop include:
- To identify key areas of synergy between pragmatic trials and implementation research
- To introduce attendees to the unique characteristics and challenges of designing, conducting, and implementing pragmatic clinical trials embedded within diverse health care systems, and to describe opportunities for integrating implementation research methods into pragmatic trials
- To increase the capacity of health services researchers to address important clinical questions with pragmatic clinical trials and share lessons from implementation science for increasing engagement of diverse participants
The theme of this year’s D&I conference is “(Re)Building Better Systems: Being Proactive, Nimble, and Responsive.” The annual conference is cohosted by the NIH and AcademyHealth.
