Results • Core Components • Flow mapping • Sustainable • Team building • Uncovered discrepancies in service delivery • CQI • Defined methodology • Ensured critical space for discussion • Coordination across sectors • Adaptable periphery • PCAT • Computer literacy • Computer access • Less relevant in low disease burden settings • Cote d’Ivoire
Results • Strongly distinguishing constructs • Networks and communication • Roles & tasks clearly communicated • In poor performing sites not enough staff to be feasible • Available resources • Perennial issue • Interventions that address logistical issues prioritized in high performers • External change agents • Strong study staff (experienced, well known, respected) • Support work on the ground before meetings • Executing • Participation/buy in • Get the right nurses to support during roll out • Majority of nurses engaged • Reflecting and evaluation • Built into the “systems view”=strengthening of the intervention • Flow maps • Cascade analysis
Considerations of f applying CFIR in LMIC settings • CFIR was useful in assessing implementation across multiple countries and contexts • Some issues in implementation • Prospective use with Likert, did not hold together • Explore binary scales • New, need to reinforce the added value of the CFIR framework to participants prior to use • Due to time, HR restraints, intent — use parts of the CFIR most relevant to intended application
