Collaborative implementation science: a Can-SOLVE CKD case example.

Abstract: Research is critical for uncovering new and effective therapies for better health outcomes, yet there remains a significant lag between identifying evidence-based interventions and implementing them into practice. Research teams can often be experienced in evidence generation, but less so in evidence implementation, underscoring the need for more customized tools to support them in this latter step. The implementation stage can be especially challenging given how strategies must be tailored to the unique end users and contexts of a given intervention.

Research and Innovation in Organ Donation: Recommendations From an International Consensus Forum.

Unlabelled: This report provides recommendations from the Research and Innovation domain as part of the International Donation and Transplantation Legislative and Policy Forum (hereafter the Forum) to provide expert guidance on the structure of an ideal organ and tissue donation and transplantation system. The recommendations focus on deceased donation research and are intended for clinicians, investigators, decision-makers, and patient, family, and donor (PFD) partners involved in the field.

Methods: We identified topics impacting donation research through consensus using nominal group technique.

Tissue and Cell Donation: Recommendations From an International Consensus Forum.

Unlabelled: Organ, tissue, and cell donation and transplantation legislation and policies vary substantially worldwide, as do performance outcomes in various jurisdictions. Our objective was to create expert, consensus guidance that links evidence and ethical concepts to legislative and policy reform for tissue and cell donation and transplantation systems.

Methods: We identified topic areas and recommendations through consensus, using nominal group technique.

Organ Donation Organization Architecture: Recommendations From an International Consensus Forum.

Unlabelled: This report contains recommendations from 1 of 7 domains of the International Donation and Transplantation Legislative and Policy Forum (the Forum). The purpose is to provide expert guidance on the structure and function of Organ and Tissue Donation and Transplantation (OTDT) systems. The intended audience is OTDT stakeholders working to establish or improve existing systems.

How Are Albertans "Adjusting to and Coping With" Dialysis? A Cross-Sectional Survey.

Background: Depression and anxiety are commonly reported (40% and 11%-52%) among adults receiving dialysis, compared with ~10% among all Canadians. Mental health in dialysis care is underrecognized and undertreated.

Objective: (1) To describe preferences for mental health support reported by Albertans receiving dialysis; (2) to compare depression, anxiety, and quality-of-life (QOL) domains for people who would or would not engage in support for mental health; and (3) to explore sociodemographic, mental health, and QOL domains that explain whether people would or would not engage in support for mental health.
