Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the primary cause of premature morbidity and mortality in the United States and Tennessee ranks among the highest in CVD events. While patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) evidence-based approaches that reach beyond the traditional doctor-patient visit hold promise to improve CVD care and prevent serious complications, most primary care providers lack time, knowledge, and infrastructure to implement these proven approaches. Statewide primary care quality improvement (QI) collaboratives hold potential to help address primary care needs, however, little is known regarding their effectiveness in improving uptake of PCOR evidence-based population health approaches and improving CVD outcomes. This study describes the design and implementation of a stepped-wedge cluster randomized controlled trial to assess the effectiveness of participation in a statewide quality improvement cooperative (The Tennessee Heart Health Network [TN-HHN]) on cardiovascular outcomes. METHODS/DESIGN The TN-HHN Effectiveness Study randomized 77 practices to 4 waves (i.e., clusters), with each wave beginning three months after the start of the prior wave and lasting for 18 months. All practice clusters received one of three Network interventions, and outcomes are measured for each three months both in the control phase and the intervention phase. Primary outcomes include Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services measures for aspirin use, blood pressure control, cholesterol control, and smoking cessation (ABCS). CONCLUSIONS This trial, upon its conclusion, will allow us to assess the effect of participation in a statewide quality improvement cooperative on cardiovascular outcomes as well as key contributors to successful practice transformation.

Aarons GA, Sklar M, Ehrhart MG, Roesch S, Moullin JC, Carandang K. Randomized trial of the leadership and organizational change for implementation (LOCI) strategy in substance use treatment clinics. JOURNAL OF SUBSTANCE USE AND ADDICTION TREATMENT 2024; 165:209437. [PMID: 38866139 DOI: 10.1016/j.josat.2024.209437] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 04/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Evidence-based practice (EBP) implementation represents a strategic change that requires alignment of leadership and support throughout organizations. Leadership and Organizational Change for Implementation (LOCI) is a multifaceted implementation strategy that aims to improve implementation leadership and climate within organizations through iterative cycles of leadership and climate assessment and feedback, leadership training and coaching, and strategic planning with upper-level leaders. This study tested the effects of LOCI on transformational and implementation leadership, implementation climate, implementation citizenship behavior, and EBP reach. METHODS A multiple cohort, cluster randomized trial tests the effect of LOCI in 60 clinics across nine behavioral health organizations in California and Arizona, USA. The study randomized clinics within organizations to either LOCI or a leadership training webinar control condition in three consecutive cohorts. Repeated web-based surveys of direct service providers (nLOCI = 201, nControl = 179) assessed leadership, implementation climate, and implementation citizenship over time. Multilevel autoregressive modeling was the primary statistical analysis such that providers (level-1) were nested within clinics (level-2). The study predicted between-condition differences at 4-, 8-, and 12-month follow-up assessments. Provider engagement in a fidelity monitoring process assessed reach of motivational interviewing (i.e., number of sessions recorded/submitted for fidelity coding). An independent sample t-test explored between condition differences in motivational interviewing reach. RESULTS Results indicated between condition differences at 4 months for implementation leadership, implementation climate, and implementation citizenship behavior such that greater improvements were evidenced in the LOCI condition compared to the control condition. Reach of MI was significantly greater in the LOCI vs control condition such that LOCI providers were significantly more likely to engage in the fidelity monitoring process (chi-square (1, n = 370) = 5.59, p = .018). CONCLUSIONS LOCI was developed based on organizational theories of strategic leadership and climate to affect organizational change processes that communicate that innovation implementation is expected, supported, and recognized as a value of the organization. The LOCI implementation strategy resulted in more positive hypothesized outcomes compared to the control condition. Organizational change strategies have utility for implementing health innovations in complex, multilevel contexts and for greater sustainment of facilitative leader behaviors, strategic implementation climate, and improved implementation outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study is registered with Clinicaltrials.gov gov (NCT03042832, 2 February 2017; retrospectively registered).
