abstract: 'Background: The use of process evaluations is a growing area of interest
|
|
|
|
in research groups working on complex interventions. This methodology
|
|
|
|
tries to understand how the intervention was implemented to inform
|
|
|
|
policy and practice. A recent systematic review by Liu et al. on process
|
|
|
|
evaluations of complex interventions addressing non-communicable
|
|
|
|
diseases found few studies in low- and middle- income countries (LMIC)
|
|
|
|
because it was restricted to randomized controlled trials, primary
|
|
|
|
healthcare level and non-communicable diseases. Yet, LMICs face
|
|
|
|
different barriers to implement interventions in comparison to
|
|
|
|
high-income countries such as limited human resources, access to health
|
|
|
|
care and skills of health workers to treat chronic conditions especially
|
|
|
|
at primary health care level. Therefore, understanding the challenges of
|
|
|
|
interventions for non-communicable diseases and neglected tropical
|
|
|
|
diseases (diseases that affect poor populations and have chronic
|
|
|
|
sequelae) will be important to improve how process evaluation is
|
|
|
|
designed, conducted and used in research projects in LMICs. For these
|
|
|
|
reasons, in comparison to the study of Liu et al., the current study
|
|
|
|
will expand the search strategy to include different study designs,
|
|
|
|
languages and settings.
|
|
|
|
Objective: Map research using process evaluation in the areas of
|
|
|
|
non-communicable diseases and neglected tropical diseases to inform the
|
|
|
|
gaps in the design and conduct of this type of research in LMICs.
|
|
|
|
Methods: Scoping review of process evaluation studies of randomized
|
|
|
|
controlled trials (RCTs) and non-RCTs of complex interventions
|
|
|
|
implemented in LMICs including participants with non-communicable
|
|
|
|
diseases or neglected tropical diseases and their health care providers
|
|
|
|
(physicians, nurses, technicians and others) related to achieve better
|
|
|
|
health for all through reforms in universal coverage, public policy,
|
|
|
|
service delivery and leadership. The aspects that will be evaluated are
|
|
|
|
as follows: (i) available evidence of process evaluation in the areas of
|
|
|
|
non-communicable diseases and neglected tropical diseases such as
|
|
|
|
frameworks and theories, (ii) methods applied to conduct process
|
|
|
|
evaluations and (iii) gaps between the design of the intervention and
|
|
|
|
its implementation that were identified through the process evaluation.
|
|
|
|
Studies published from January 2008. Exclusion criteria are as follows:
|
|
|
|
not peer reviewed articles, not a report based on empirical research,
|
|
|
|
not reported in English or Spanish or Portuguese or French, reviews and
|
|
|
|
non-human research.
|
|
|
|
Discussion: This scoping review will map the evidence of process
|
|
|
|
evaluations conducted in LMICs. It will also identify the methods they
|
|
|
|
used to collect and interpret data, how different theories and
|
|
|
|
frameworks were used and lessons from the implementation of complex
|
|
|
|
interventions. This information will allow researchers to conduct better
|
|
|
|
process evaluations considering special characteristics from countries
|
|
|
|
with limited human resources, scarce data available and limited access
|
|
|
|
to health care.'
