Intervention Characteristics: determinants, tailoring, and identification of key aspects for implementation planning.
| Construct and study results | Considerations regarding determinants | Tailoring and key aspects |
| Intervention Source: intervention considered as internally developed | Facilitator: the involvement in the development study [41] and this study may promote ownership to the intervention, which may support intervention implementation. | Key aspect: ownership |
| Relative Advantage: the intervention as an advantage to current practice | Facilitator: HCPsa pointed to aspects perceived to be advantages of the intervention. This may be considered as a positive attitude to what is being implemented. | Key aspect: a positive attitude to implement the intervention |
| Adaptability: use of existing system | Facilitator: participants perceived the previous integration of InvolveMe in a patient portal to be beneficial. This may support acceptance and adoption | Key aspect: system acceptance and adoption |
| Adaptability: a new work task; the secure assessment feature | Barrier: The assessment was a new work task for HCPs, which caused a concern for increased workload and potentially increased time pressure on consultations. | Tailoring: the assessment feature was condensed to a brief list and refinement was made to the summary |
| Trialability: a need to test before the clinical trial | Barrier: HCPs highlighted that a pilot study would be important to test the intervention and the implementation strategies. A test of the intervention would also inform HCPs that were not formerly involved in the research project and potentially address concerns in advance. | Tailoring: decision, agreed upon by all parties involved, to conduct a pilot study |
| Complexity: lack of integration between EPRb and patient portal | Barrier: it was recognized as important to improve accessibility and avoid paper printouts of the assessment summary. | Tailoring: the summary was created in a format that could be copied and pasted from the patient portal and into the EPR |
| Complexity: messages sent directly to the physicians | Barrier: it was considered important to tailor the intervention to suit the physician’s clinical workflow to succeed with intervention implementation. | Tailoring: a shared email inbox with a dedicated triage moderator was established |
aHCP: health care provider.
bEPR: electronic patient record.
