Enhancing the Implementation of the Virtual Pediatric Trauma Center Using Practical, Robust, Implementation and Sustainability Model: A Mixed-Methods Study.

Background: This article describes factors related to adoption, implementation, and effectiveness of the Virtual Pediatric Trauma Center intervention, which uses telehealth for trauma specialist consultations for seriously injured children. We aimed at (1) measuring RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance) implementation outcomes and (2) identifying PRISM (Practical, Robust, Implementation, and Sustainability Model) contextual factors that influenced the implementation outcomes.

Methods: This interim implementation evaluation of our telehealth trial used a convergent mixed-methods design.
