There is a need for further research entailing additional stakeholder perspectives as well as quantitative investigations of clinical and cost-effectiveness before more generalised conclusions can be made.
However, there is an additional possible "stakeholder" that could be conceived in two different ways, either as an almost 90-year-old sculptor from Landshut, Germany, or as a single piece of art, the respect for whose symbolic expression has its own weight.
These interviews and the additional stakeholder interviews each ran for approximately one hour, and were conducted using a semi-structured questionnaire.
Where feasible, additional stakeholder focus group meeting were held in some countries, and key findings were reported back to stakeholders.
Additional stakeholder and lay advice and input will therefore be drawn from people with knowledge and experience relevant to the aims of the project.
Stakeholder discussions and interviews, comparison of existing tools, pilot-testing and additional stakeholder feedback one year after ClASS had been implemented, together resulted in the development of the ClASS framework, approach, assessment and review team composition and roles, modules and tools, a model for provision of technical assistance and implementation process [ 15].
Over the course of the three-round Delphi panel, an additional 121 stakeholders participated.
Participants also suggested a number of additional stakeholders (e.g. HR staff).
As projects developed they gradually drew in a wide variety of additional stakeholders including policy makers (CS2 and 3), administrators (CS1), information technology specialists (CS1), laboratory staff (CS2 and 3), health providers, community members and various professional organisations (CS1-4).
