Abstract
Based on a systematic review and a consensus process we developed a checklist that aims to be comprehensive and to build on the strengths of each of the 12 included checklists. The checklist is accompanied with five worksheets to facilitate its use in implementation research and quality improvement projects.

Implementation ScienceFostering implementation of health services research findings into practice: a consolidated framework for advancing implementation science
14,839 Citations2009Laura J. Damschroder, David C. Aron +4 more
The CFIR provides a pragmatic structure for approaching complex, interacting, multi-level, and transient states of constructs in the real world by embracing, consolidating, and unifying key constructs from published implementation theories.
JAMAWhy Don't Physicians Follow Clinical Practice Guidelines?
6,528 Citations1999Michael D. Cabana, Cynthia S. Rand +5 more
A differential diagnosis for why physicians do not follow practice guidelines is offered, as well as a rational approach toward improving guideline adherence and a framework for future research are offered.
BMJ Quality & SafetyMaking psychological theory useful for implementing evidence based practice: a consensus approach
3,607 Citations2005Susan Michie
A set of behaviour change domains agreed by a consensus of experts is available for use in implementation research and applications of this domain list will enhance understanding of the behaviour change processes inherent in implementation of evidence-based practice.
BMJ Quality & SafetyEnabling the implementation of evidence based practice: a conceptual framework.
2,045 Citations1998Alison Kitson, Gill Harvey +1 more
The paper offers a conceptual framework that considers this imbalance, showing how it might work in clarifying some of the theoretical positions and as a checklist for staff to assess what they need to do to successfully implement research into practice.
The Medical Journal of AustraliaWhat drives change? Barriers to and incentives for achieving evidence‐based practice
1,411 Citations2004Richard Grol, Michel Wensing
To bridge the gap between scientific evidence and patient care the authors need an in‐depth understanding of the barriers and incentives to achieving change in practice, and potential barriers at various levels need to be addressed.
Implementation ScienceEvaluating the successful implementation of evidence into practice using the PARiHS framework: theoretical and practical challenges
1,341 Citations2008Alison L Kitson, Jo Rycroft‐Malone +4 more
The paper concludes by suggesting that the future direction of the work on the PARiHS framework is to develop a two-stage diagnostic and evaluative approach, where the intervention is shaped and moulded by the information gathered about the specific situation and from participating stakeholders.
BMC Health Services ResearchSystems for grading the quality of evidence and the strength of recommendations I: Critical appraisal of existing approaches The GRADE Working Group
1,231 Citations2004David C. Atkins, Martin Eccles +13 more
The objective was to critically appraise six prominent systems for grading levels of evidence and the strength of recommendations as a basis for agreeing on characteristics of a common, sensible approach.
Cochrane Database of Systematic ReviewsTailored interventions to overcome identified barriers to change: effects on professional practice and health care outcomes
987 Citations2010Richard Baker, Janette Camosso‐Stefinovic +5 more
Interventions tailored to prospectively identified barriers are more likely to improve professional practice than no intervention or dissemination of guidelines, however, the methods used to identify barriers and tailor interventions to address them need further development.
Journal of Clinical EpidemiologyValidation of an index of the quality of review articles
789 Citations1991Andrew D Oxman, Gordon Guyatt
The OQAQ is a valid measure of the quality of research overviews and the primary shortcoming noted was the need for judgement in applying the index.
Journal of Continuing Education in the Health ProfessionsGaps between knowing and doing: Understanding and assessing the barriers to optimal health care
501 Citations2007Lorna J. Cochrane, Curtis A. Olson +4 more
The findings establish the evolution of research methodologies and emerging barriers to the translation of knowing to doing and indicate that designs are becoming more aligned with the complexity of the health care environment.
Implementation ScienceTailored implementation for chronic diseases (TICD): A project protocol
194 Citations2011Michel Wensing, Andy Oxman +6 more
The TICD project will provide much needed evidence on the advantages and disadvantages of different methods of identifying important determinants of practice and selecting implementation strategies that take account of those and provide five rigorous evaluations of tailored implementation interventions for five different chronic conditions.
Critical Care MedicineUsing an interdisciplinary approach to identify factors that affect cliniciansʼ compliance with evidence-based guidelines
141 Citations2010Ayşe P. Gürses, Jill A. Marsteller +4 more
An interdisciplinary approach is needed to improve clinicians' compliance with evidence-based guidelines and the conceptual framework from this research can provide a comprehensive and systematic guide to identify barriers to guideline compliance and design effective interventions to improve patient safety.
Journal of Clinical EpidemiologyAn index of scientific quality for health reports in the lay press
112 Citations1993Andrew D Oxman, Gordon H. Guyatt +4 more
An index of scientific quality for health-related news reports and tested its reliability and sensibility, finding the index was found to be sensible with only one major problem, the need for judgment in making ratings.

This project aimed to retrieve, by a literature review, all the facilitators of and barriers to physician's adherence to Clinical Practice Guidelines and propose a classification of these barriers and facilitators.
