Background: The complexity of falls in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) needs further exploration to develop strategies to reduce fall risk. The aim of this study is to explore and describe factors contributing to falls and the complexity of fall situations in people with MS.
Methods: This longitudinal study used individual interviews shortly after prospective reporting of falls.

Patient and next-of-kin representatives (PR) co-produced person-centred and cohesive clinical pathways together with healthcare professionals (HPR). Research on co-production in healthcare at the national level is scarce.

Design: This study had an explorative qualitative design using data gathered from individual interviews and focus groups. Qualitative content analysis with a deductive category development was applied using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research.
Background: There is moderate to strong evidence of the effectiveness of health-promotion interventions, but implementation in routine primary health care (PHC) has been slow. In the Act in Time project implementation support is provided for a health promotion practice using individually targeted lifestyle interventions in a PHC setting. Identifying health care professionals' (HCPs') perceptions of barriers and facilitators helps adapt implementation activities and achieve a more successful implementation.
