Cheryl B. Stetler,Marcia W. Legro,Carolyn Wallace,Candice Bowman,Marylou Guihan,Hildi Hagedorn,Barbara Kimmel,Barbara Kimmel,Nancy D. Sharp,Jeffrey L. Smith +9 more
TL;DR: The importance and role of 4 stages of formative evaluation in growing understanding of how to implement research findings into practice in order to improve the quality of clinical care is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of "external facilitation" in implementation of research findings: a qualitative evaluation of facilitation experiences in the Veterans Health Administration
Cheryl B. Stetler,Marcia W. Legro,Joanne Rycroft-Malone,Candice Bowman,Geoffrey M. Curran,Marylou Guihan,Hildi Hagedorn,Sandra Pineros,Carolyn Wallace +8 more
TL;DR: An evaluation of implementation-related facilitation experiences within QUERI provides evidence to suggest that facilitation could be considered a distinct implementation intervention, just as audit and feedback, educational outreach, or similar methods are considered to be discrete interventions.
Journal Article
Issues of importance reported by persons with lower limb amputations and prostheses.
Marcia W. Legro,Gayle E. Reiber,del Aguila M,Ajax Mj,David A. Boone,Larsen Ja,Douglas G. Smith,Bruce J. Sangeorzan +7 more
TL;DR: Prosthesis-related issues of importance that were identified by a diverse group of persons living with lower limb amputations (LLA) and prostheses validate some old assumptions and challenge others, report both common and unusual experiences, and indirectly identify the information level of respondents concerning prostheses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phantom limb, residual limb, and back pain after lower extremity amputations.
Douglas G. Smith,Dawn M. Ehde,Marcia W. Legro,Gayle E. Reiber,Michael del Aguila,David A. Boone +5 more
TL;DR: The results support the importance of looking at pain as a multidimensional rather than a unidimensional construct and suggest that back pain after lower extremity amputation may be an overlooked but very important pain problem warranting additional clinical attention and study.
