Assessing fidelity to complex interventions: the icons experience
Background Assessing fidelity to complex healthcare interventions in clinical trials is a challenging area. ‘ICONS’ is a cluster randomised controlled feasibility trial of a systematic voiding programme (SVP), incorporating bladder training and prompted voiding, to promote post-stroke continence. Here we describe feasibility of one aspect of fidelity assessment: the day-to-day implementation of...
متن کاملA Framework For Assessing Diagnostics Model Fidelity
“All models are wrong but some are useful" [1]. We address the problem of identifying which diagnosis models are more useful than others. Models are critical to diagnostics inference, yet little work exists to be able to compare models. We define the role of models in diagnostics inference, propose metrics for models, and apply these metrics to a tank benchmark system. Given the many approaches...
متن کاملA focused approach to assessing fidelity 1 A focused approach to assessing prevention program fidelity
The primary goals of the present study were 1) to explore the types and frequencies of adaptation reported by facilitators; 2) to document their reasons for making those adaptations; and 3) to propose an efficient approach to the study of prevention program fidelity based on interview data. We interviewed 42 program facilitators involved in a large-scale dissemination about their implementation...
متن کاملSub- and super-fidelity as bounds for quantum fidelity
We derive several bounds on fidelity between quantum states. In particular we show that fidelity is bounded from above by a simple to compute quantity we call super–fidelity. It is analogous to another quantity called sub–fidelity. For any two states of a two– dimensional quantum system (N = 2) all three quantities coincide. We demonstrate that sub– and super–fidelity are concave functions. We ...
متن کاملEvaluating Implementation Fidelity in Health Information Technology Interventions
Health information technology evaluators need to distinguish between intervention efficacy as assessed in the ideal circumstances of clinical trials and intervention effectiveness as assessed in the real world circumstances of actual practice. Because current evaluation study designs do not routinely allow for this distinction, we have developed a framework for evaluation of implementation fide...
