The TRANSIT program is a program to TRANSform InTerprofessional clinical practices to
improve cardiovascular prevention in primary care. It addresses priorities in primary care
relevant to the Chronic Care Model (Wagner 2001): self-management support, delivery-system
design, and management of clinical information.
The program includes :
- a case manager to coordinate and provide care and follow up;
- clinical protocols and tools to support interprofessional and systematic follow up;
- training for clinicians;
- patient's personalized cardiovascular health booklet;
- tools to promote group sessions for patient education on cholesterol, hypertension, and
diabetes.
The general OBJECTIVE of this trial is to evaluate and compare two STRATEGIES for
implementing the TRANSIT program in Family Medicine Groups (FMGs):
1. facilitation, and
2. passive diffusion.
Passive diffusion is the usual strategy where clinicians implement an intervention program
by themselves. Facilitation is a strategy whereby a facilitator provides support to a team
of clinicians to help them introduce the changes required to implement the program into
practice.
The hypothesis is that facilitation will be more efficacious to implement the program than
passive diffusion:
- it will enhance the provision of cardiovascular preventive care;
- it will enhance interprofessional collaboration;
- it will enable more efficaciously the implementation of new clinical processes;
- it will improve patient clinical outcomes;
- it will cost more in the short term, but will have positive economic impact in the long
term;
- there will be less "undesired effects" of all types related to implementation.
To test the hypothesis, we assess the efficacy of the implementation strategies to enhance
interprofessional collaboration and better support patients in the management of their
conditions. Impact on provision of care, interprofessional collaboration, clinical
processes, and patient clinical outcomes (values, therapeutic targets, and lifestyle habits)
will be evaluated. Moreover, the implementation cost related to each strategy will be
estimated.
We complement the trial with qualitative methods to document the perceptions of clinicians,
facilitators, patients and members of the family regarding the TRANSIT program, the
implementation strategies and the observed changes in the clinical practices and outcomes.
