Institutionalizing evidence-based practice: an organizational case study using a model of strategic change
TL;DR: Evidence is provided of some of the key contextual elements that may require attention if institutionalization of EBP is to be realized and the importance of specific interactions among these elements, including ways in which leadership affects other contextual elements positively or negatively.

TL;DR: Though effectiveness evidence is weak, change agent roles are evolving, as is the literature, which requires more detailed description of interventions, outcomes measures, the context, intensity, and levels at which interventions are implemented in order to understand how change agent interventions effect evidence-informed health care.
Improving quality of care through routine, successful implementation of evidence-based practice at the bedside: an organizational case study protocol using the Pettigrew and Whipp model of strategic change
Cheryl B. Stetler,Judith A. Ritchie,Joanne Rycroft-Malone,Alyce Schultz,Martin P. Charns,Martin P. Charns +5 more
