简要总结
This study aims to evaluate two interventions designed to make medication prescribing safer, OptimiseRx and PINCER, which are being used in general practices across England. The findings from the evaluation will be used to generate recommendations as to how these interventions can be used sustainably in the long-term.
详细描述
This study has been designed to evaluate and gain an understanding of the 'real world' implementation, fidelity and medium and longer-term embedding and sustainability of two prescribing safety interventions: the computerised decision support (CDS) tool - Optimize Rx, and PINCER (pharmacist-led information technology intervention for reducing clinically important errors in medication management). The longitudinal process evaluation will involve observations, interviews, focus groups and questionnaires. The consolidated learning exercise, which aims to inform long-term, sustainable intervention use will involve a documentary analysis, interviews, focus groups, development workshops and a synthesis of the evaluation results.

结局指标
主要结局
Primary Objective 1. Impact of influential factors in translation, implementation and sustained use of the OptimiseRx and PINCER interventions in the short-term, medium-term or long-term.
时间窗: Time periods are classified as short-term (< 6 months), medium-term (6-18 months) or long-term (≥ 18 months) implementation
Semi-structured interviews, focus groups and a questionnaire survey will be conducted to evaluate the contextual factors that influence the nature and extent of translation, implementation and sustained use of the PINCER intervention and prescribing safety indicator (PSI) functions, in particular, across different Academic Health Science Networks (AHSNs) and CCGs over prolonged time periods.
Primary Objective 2. Fidelity of the PINCER intervention delivery and variations in success over time.
时间窗: Time periods are classified as short-term (< 6 months), medium-term (6-18 months) or long-term (≥ 18 months) implementation
Semi-structured interviews, focus groups and a questionnaire survey will be conducted to evaluate how the PINCER intervention has been delivered, experienced and has evolved over time in diverse contexts to achieve different degrees of success with particular reference to PSIs.
次要结局
- Secondary Objective 1. Impact and sustained delivery of the PINCER intervention and potential complementary use of OptimseRx and PINCER.(Short-term (< 6 months), medium-term (6-18 months) or long-term (≥ 18 months) implementation)
