Implementing the PREP2 algorithm to predict upper limb recovery potential after stroke in clinical practice: a qualitative study.
CONCLUSIONS: The PREP2 prediction tool was successfully implemented in clinical practice at ADHB. Barriers and facilitators to implementation success were identified, and implementation strategies were described. Lessons learned can aid future development and implementation of prediction models in clinical practice. IMPACT: Translating evidence-based interventions into clinical practice can be challenging and slow; however, shortly after its local validation, PREP2 was successfully implemented into clinical practice at the same site in New Zealand. In parallel to further model validation, organizations and practices c...
