The research is conducted in the district where the further development and pilot-testing of the care package is going to take place.
This article is divided into two parts: In part A, we describe the further development and piloting of the proposed LTNC register and a feasible dataset that could be used in the course of routine practice to monitor needs, inputs and outcomes for people with LTNCs in the community.
It provided the opportunity to identify issues and aspects of the intervention that required further development and the pilot phase indicated that the intervention would be well received by GPs, providing support for the implementation of the intervention in clinical practice in Irish primary care.
As this was a pilot study further development and continuing evaluation of the model is recommended.
Each round of piloting informed further development and fine-tuning of the content and materials.
The pilot informed the further development and refinement of technical specifications, data access controls and the establishment of an independent review process for data utilisation, to create an operational databank for research.
In vitro toxicity screening is a compulsory aspect of the pilot safety assessment of plant extracts and compounds before further development and commercialisation [ 31].
Positive feedback was received at a collaborating university in a pilot evaluation of early childhood lecturers and students, paving the way for further development and studies.
These results may lead to further development and use of field-based water quality assays as part of the household surveys that are being piloted in a limited number of countries in 2012.
The objective of our pilot study was to evaluate the performance of various new diagnostic tests for TB in India, to identify candidate assays that may be suitable for further development and study in larger clinical trials.
To further safeguard patients with anaphylaxis in the Australian community, development and pilot of a programme similar to the 'Orange Cross' scheme would be useful.
