UW Pubs: Implementation Outcomes
In a landmark moment for the field, Dr. Enola Proctor and colleagues published ‘Outcomes for Implementation Research: Conceptual Distinctions, Measurement Challenges, and Research Agenda.’ This open access paper distinguished implementation outcomes from service system outcomes and clinical treatment outcomes. Implementation outcomes were defined as ‘the effects of deliberate and purposive actions to implement new treatments, practices, and services.’
The authors argued that implementation outcomes were conceptually distinct from the other two types of outcomes, serving three key functions as:
- indicators of the implementation success
- proximal indicators of implementation processes
- key intermediate outcomes of service system or clinical outcomes
‘Because an intervention or treatment will not be effective if it is not implemented well, implementation outcomes serve as necessary preconditions for attaining subsequent desired changes in clinical or service outcomes.’
– Proctor et al, 2011
