Evidence of the implementability of remote expert wound nurse consultations (intervention) for PI prevention and management can inform the design of future research, optimize intervention success and minimise research waste. Method: A non-randomised feasibility study was conducted in three residential aged care homes in Australia. The study sought to evaluate the acceptability, feasibility and fidelity of the intervention and research processes in preparation for a pilot RCT. Results / Discussion: Nurses (n=30) were trained and residents at risk of PIs (n=16) and who had PIs (n=24) received a total of 132 remote CNC consultations (via videoconferencing) together with nurses during their 12 week intervention period. Organisational support was high, nurse engagement was variable, family member attendance at consultations was adhoc, and information technology issues were problematic. Fidelity of CNC care plan implementation by nurses was high. A wound imaging system was successfully utilised to quantify wound healing. Refinements to the intervention and processes were made and our pilot RCT is currently underway. Conclusion: Implementation research can help to identify approaches that support translation of evidence into practice. This presentation will discuss the findings of the feasibility study and the essentialness of implementation research in wound management. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: abstract proceedings research Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
