Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary outcomes are implementation science outcomes (Reach, Appropriateness, Acceptability, Self-efficacy, Adoption, Cost, Feasibility, Fidelity and Sustainability). Reach data will be number of person screened, number of green, amber and red profiled person, number of participants, number of participants with a complete follow up and quartiles for both groups (are the questionnaires fully filled up for all quantitative data in both groups), number of intervention groups participants that achieved the full, ¾ or ½ or ¼ of the training.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The impact of an enhanced comprehensive CVD prevention program on patient outcomes regarding lifestyle behavior change. To explore the barriers and facilitators of cardiovascular primary prevention (CPP) implementation approaches with participants, supervisors and screeners we will use a qualitative research framework. Each setting will collect qualitative data about perceived and actual barriers and facilitators of CPP implementation and this will then be analyzed and compared with the other settings to inform best practice both in, and between, the settings during the three-year implementation period.
