Implementation Impact Outcomes
| ||
Reach * | Those who access care, or initiate SBIRT (numerator) out of the number of people in need (denominator) who are all individuals that screen positive in the mwTool (men ≥4; women ≥335,54-56) Characteristics of those reached vs. not* (gender, age, health outcomes and urbanicity) | Community Health Worker (CHW)/Patient (Pt) |
Adoption- Clinic and Staff Level | Number of clinics/CHW using SBIRT (numerator) over those expected (denominator, all in each district)**. | Research Assistant (RA)/ CHW |
Clinics | Characteristics of clinics adopting vs. not in both conditions** (Urbanicity: rural/urban; number of CHW; patients’ characteristics (i.e., comorbidities; access barriers); Evidence-Based Practice Attitudes Scale - 15 items57; Ready Set Change (organizational readiness for change)51; The Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance (RE-AIM) Planning Tool, 27- item scale26,58,59; The Program Sustainability Assessment Tool, 40-items60,61) | |
Staff (Causal Model33,62) | Characteristics of CHWs adopting vs. not in both conditions** (age; gender; Work; Self-efficacy, 10 items63– 65; Intentions (2-items; 7-point scale) asking how willing and how likely one is to use each SBIRT component66,67; Attitudes towards each component of SBIRT (6 standard semantic differential scales)68; Norms or perception that other people like them will use the SBIRT (6 standard item stems); and Self-Efficacy (two statements) measuring CHWs’/supervisors’ perceptions of their skills and abilities to perform SBIRT | |
Implementation Fidelity ** | Consistency of implementation across time in both conditions. Characteristics of Clinics/CHW as described above in Adoption | RA/CHW |
Maintenance | Use over two years. Number of clinics using SBIRT** Adaptations to protocols** Characteristics of Clinics/CHW as described above in Adoption** |
RA/CHW |
Clinical Effectiveness Outcomes | ||
Symptoms * | AUDIT54,56,69 – 10-item instrument developed by the WHO | CHW/Pt |
Functioning * | Short Form Health Survey 12 (SF-12)37–40 | CHW/Pt |
Other Health Related | Through electronic medical records | CHW/Pt |
Outcomes * | (e.g., HIV viral load, adherence to care for HIV/TB) | |
Cost Effectiveness Outcomes | ||
Cost (Effort and Time) ** | Cost as milestones are accomplished (Stages of Implementation Completion Scale (SIC; 8-stages of implementation: Readiness or Pre-Implementation, Adoption | RA/CHW |
or Implementation, and Sustainability/Competency)30 & Cost of Implementing New Strategies (COINS; Mapping Implementation Resources Using the SIC)70 |
recorded by CHWs or Supervisors as clinical record; de-identified aggregate collected every 6 months – using mSBIRT or REDCap
administered by Research assistant - REDCap (secure data capture/management web tool) will be used for data management
Note: Qualitative methods will assess all domains in satisfaction, barriers/facilitators, community engagement/priority given to alcohol services
