Scaling up complex interventions: insights from a realist synthesis
Preventing chronic diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes, requires complex interventions, involving multi-component and multi-level efforts that are tailored to the contexts in which they are delivered.

متن کاملScaling Up Educational Interventions
Some educational interventions successfully “scale up.” Others do not. Little— arguably, almost nothing—is known about the factors that lead to successful scaling up.

متن کاملRole of context in care transition interventions for medically complex older adults: a realist synthesis protocol.
INTRODUCTION Approximately 30-50% of older adults have two or more conditions and are referred to as multimorbid or complex patients. These patients often require visits to various healthcare providers in a number of settings and are therefore susceptible to fragmented healthcare delivery while transitioning to receive care.
