Implementation Science in Perioperative Care [PDF]
Anesthesiology Clinics, 2018 There is a 17-year gap between the initial publication of scientific evidence and its uptake into widespread practice in health care. The field of implementation science (IS) emerged in the 1990s as an answer to this “evidence-to-practice gap.” In this article, we present an overview of implementation science, focusing on the application of IS ...
