About this study

Official title: Validation of the Effectiveness of the CFIR - ERIC Matching Tool in Implementation Research of Pediatric Venous Access Device Selection

The goal of this implementation study is to learn if the CFIR-ERIC matching tool is effective indeveloping implementation strategies for pediatric nurse. The evidence practised in this study is the pediatric venous access device selection decision tree from clinical practice guideline on infusion therapy in children. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. Does the implementation strategies developed by CFIR-ERIC matching tool improve nurses knowledge in venous access devices selection.
  2. Does the implementation strategies developed by CFIR-ERIC matching tool lower the error rate of appropriate venous access device selection.

Researchers will compare the CFIR-ERIC group to a blank group to see if CIFR-ERIC matching tool works to improve nurses knowleged and lower the error rate of venous access device selection.

Participants will:

  1. Receive the implementation strategies made by CFIR-ERIC matching tool.
  2. Using the pediatric venous access device selection decision trees in daily catheterization.
  3. Record their venous access device selection informantion, consumables usage and pediatric patients' outcome.
Read the detailed description

Currently,the evidence-based practice research often isolates barrier assessment from implementation strategy development. At tne same time, many implementation science models being overly complex for clinicians. In Chinese, certain studies still neglect barrier assessment, demonstrate inconsistent conceptualization of implementation strategies, and rarely classify developed strategies.

As a tool for matching and selecting implementation strategies, the CFIR - ERIC matching tool has the characteristics of strong pertinence, repeatability, structuring, systematization, and simple and convenient operation compared with other models. Researchers can identify barrier factors through CFIR and use the CFIR - ERIC matching tool to match strategies to promote the implementation of clinical intervention measures.

This implementation study adopted a pre-post design using the CFIR-ERIC Matching Tool to analyze barriers and develop strategies. Grounded in the "Pediatric Venous Access Device Selection Decision Tree" from the 2021 clinical practice guideline on infusion therapy in children, the intervention was rolled out across 21 wards at the Children's Hospital of Fudan University.

The implementation process of the evidence was evaluated from four aspects using the RE-AIM framework , including the evaluation indicators corresponding to each dimension of patient reach, intervention efficacy, medical adoption, and guideline implementation.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • implementation strategiesOther

    Also called pediatric venous access device selection decision tree

    1. Analysis of barrier factors: A focus group interview will be conducted. Purposive sampling was used to include senior nurses in the ward, members of the evidence-based group, and doctors for the analysis of barrier factors. Then the CFIR-ERIC matching tool will be used to develop implementation strategies based on the barrier factors.
    2. The best - worst scaling method will be used to generate relatively reliable and valid preference evidence of stakeholders for implementation strategies from CFIR-ERIC matching tool.
    3. The implementation strategies will be developed specifically by an expert group. This group includes nursing managers and experts in evidence-based practice.
    4. Implement the strategies.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. error rate of appropriate venous access device selection

    According to the recommendations in the guidelines, selecting the infusion device is considered correct, while failing to select according to the recommendations is considered incorrect. Error rate = Number of incorrect selections / Total number of catheter insertions by nurses

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Score of nurses' knowledge questionaire of venous access device selection

    The knowledge questionnaire is divided into three dimensions: device-related knowledge, access-related knowledge, and selection-related knowledge, with a total score of 100. The higher the score, the better the nurses' mastery of knowledge about venous device selection. The online knowledge questionnaire will be distributed to nurses before and after the intervention, and nurses are required to finish it during the morning shift handover. The researchers will conduct statistics on the questionnaire scores.

    Measured: The third and sixth months of the research.

  2. Nurses' compliance with evidence-based practice behaviors

    Develop review indicators based on the evidence from applications, and review whether nurses have achieved the corresponding indicators in clinical practice.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Complication rate

    Statistically analyze the incidence of catheter-related complications in children after nurses select intravenous infusion devices.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. The cost of venous access device consumables

    Including venous access device (including the total number of catheters consumed by successful or failed placement), dressing, central venous maintenance kits, infusion connectors, and flushing or locking solution.

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Implementing process evaluated based on "Reach*Efficacy(RE)-Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance(AIM)" framework

    Including Reach, Efficacy, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance. Reach refers to the participation rate of training course; Efficacy refers to the change of knowledge level and compliance of evidence-based practice behavior of nurses in the intervention group; Adoption refers to the proportion of evidence actually adopted by nurse in the intervention group and the changes of context; Implementation refers to the completion rate of each training plan in the implementation strategy; Maintenance refers to evaluating the maintenance of the selection scheme.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing implementation strategies in people with Infusions, Intravenous and Implementation Science, run by Children's Hospital of Fudan University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

error rate of appropriate venous access device selection (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
