Enhancing implementation of information and communication technologies for post-discharge care among hospitalized older adult patients: development of a multifaceted implementation intervention package using the behavior change wheel and implementation research logic model.
Article in Implementation science communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe integration of information and communication technologies in clinical practice can supplement traditional care pathways on discharge education and has exhibited evident benefits in improving patient health outcomes. However, healthcare providers have reported difficulties in adopting such technologies. The existing evidence on implementation interventions supporting the implementation of information and communication technologies is insufficient, characterized by infrequent utilization or reporting of implementation theories in implementation intervention designs. This study aims to outline the creation of a theory-informed implementation intervention package to enhance the clinical implementation of information and communication technologies for post-discharge self-care among hospitalized older adults.
methodsThis study systematically applies the Behavior Change Wheel (BCW) approach, involving behavior diagnosis, identification of intervention options, and intervention content selection, informed by conceptual frameworks, empirical data, and relevant literature. Additionally, the Implementation Research Logic Model is utilized to synthesize, organize, and visually present the collected data.
resultsThis structured process identified and selected five intervention functions, 11 behavior change techniques, and four policy categories. A multifaceted implementation intervention package was developed, containing four components: (i) flexible and sustainable training, (ii) mass media and opinion leader campaign, (iii) technology and workflow redesign, and (iv) regular corporate-level audit and feedback.
conclusionsThe study addresses the incomplete evidence base for implementation interventions supporting clinical information and communication technology implementation, presenting a practical, evaluable, and scalable theory-informed implementation intervention package. By providing an example of the application of the BCW approach and logic model, this study contributes to the knowledge on implementation intervention design, offering valuable insights for researchers and practitioners aiming to improve healthcare providers' behavior change and post-discharge care management with technology-based interventions.
