Currently, due to the increasing use of information systems to support process execution, detailed information on the implementation of processes are recorded as event logs, transaction logs, etc.
Process evaluation offers the potential to monitor and assure quality of intervention implementation and provides information on the depth and breadth of intervention implementation and adherence, secular trends and potential contamination of the control group.
In practice, this optimum step-size control mechanism is inappropriate since it requires the knowledge of signals which are not available under real conditions, but it allows us to minimize the impact of a particular AFC implementation by providing useful information on the achievable AFC performance.
WG1 4 support WG 5 in the promulgation of the data and achieved knowledge, inter alia by implementation of WG specific information on the website in a password protected area.
However, there is less information on the implementation of these guidelines and whether implementation improves prescribing practices of clinicians or patient outcomes [7].
The implementation analysis will provide important information on the barriers and drivers to the delivery and implementation of care in both treatment arms.
In a second step, in-depth interviews were carried out with purposively selected key informants in order to obtain information on the actual implementation of the programme, the mechanisms and context (see Table 2).
Semi-structured interviews with head nurses (T2) and staff nurses (T1) involved in the implementation process in each nursing home will be used to gather information on the degree of implementation following the concept of implementation fidelity [ 42].
