The NIH Pragmatic Trials Collaboratory will offer a full-day workshop at the 16th Annual Conference on the Science of Dissemination and Implementation in Health in Arlington, Virginia. The workshop, “Dissemination & Implementation in Embedded Pragmatic Trials: Raising the Bar for Real-World Research,” will introduce concepts in the design, conduct, and implementation of pragmatic clinical trials embedded in healthcare systems, with a particular focus on methods relevant to health services researchers.
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 embedded pragmatic clinical trials and share lessons from implementation science for supporting intervention adoption, sustainment, scale-up, and/or deimplementation
The theme of this year’s D&I conference is “Raising Expectations for D&I Science: Challenges and Opportunities.” The annual conference is cohosted by the NIH and AcademyHealth.
