Abstract

There is a 17-year gap between the publication of research which proves an intervention is efficacious and effective and the implementation of that same intervention into practice [1]. In behavioral health, only 14% of successful interventions are integrated into actual practice [2]. As such, Implementation Science is envisioned to address the research to practice gap. This research methodology becomes important as it looks to investigate how to get interventions to become embedded in practice and de-implement unproven or disproven interventions that may be harmful and/or ineffective for patients. The aim of this commentary is to raise awareness of health sciences librarians/information specialists about this research arena and encourage health sciences librarians to envision how they could be involved in implementation science projects and teams or even use implementation science in their practice.

实施科学:我们为什么要关心?
从发表研究报告证明干预措施有效,到将干预措施付诸实践,这中间有 17 年的时间差[1]。在行为健康领域,只有 14% 的成功干预措施被纳入到实际操作中[2]。因此,"实施科学 "旨在解决研究与实践之间的差距。这种研究方法非常重要,因为它着眼于研究如何让干预措施融入实践,并取消未经证实或已被否定的干预措施,因为这些干预措施可能对患者有害和/或无效。本评论旨在提高健康科学图书馆员/信息专家对这一研究领域的认识,鼓励健康科学图书馆员设想如何参与实施科学项目和团队,甚至在实践中使用实施科学。
