  2. Full Course Outline

  3. Module I AHRQ’s Vision for Stakeholder Engagement

  4. What to Expect in Module I Module I will cover the following topics: • AHRQ’s vision for stakeholder engagement in the EHC Program • The theory and evidence behind stakeholder engagement in comparative effectiveness research • The alignment of principles of comparative effectiveness research (CER) and stakeholder engagement

  5. Module I Learning Objectives After completing Module I, participants will be able to: • Identify AHRQ’s vision for stakeholder engagement • Describe the theoretical basis for engaging stakeholders • List at least three benefits of engaging stakeholders in research • Identify three differences between knowledge transfer and knowledge exchange

  6. Stakeholder Engagement in Research “Awareness of the difference between the views of members of the public and those of researchers and professionals implies a pressing need to include the public in setting research agendas at the early stages in the research process . . . . Involving members of the public at this stage may be key to real empowerment as it is at these stages of research development that there is opportunity to influence.” (Gooberman-Hill & Horwood, 2008)

  7. Defining Stakeholder Engagement Stakeholders are defined as individuals or organizations who have a personal or professional interest in the topic. Stakeholder engagement is a process of giving voice to and involving stakeholders in EHC Program related decision making and research. It serves the purposes of reciprocal learning and knowledge exchange to improve health.

  8. AHRQ’s Vision for Stakeholder Engagement “The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) firmly believes that involving all stakeholders in the research enterprise from the beginning improves the end product and facilitates the diffusion and implementation of the findings by getting early buy in from users. Involving all stakeholders also helps to ensure that the research reflects the various needs of all diverse users.” (Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, 2009)

  9. AHRQ’s Vision for Stakeholder Engagement • Stakeholders are involved throughout the research process • Create strategic involvement and partnerships with a broad and inclusive range of stakeholders • Collaborative relationships should inform all phases of research • Stakeholder input maximize usefulness of EHC Program products

  10. Theory of Stakeholder Engagement Evidence suggests that engaging stakeholders in research increases: Relevance & context Knowledge exchange Application of evidence Dissemination avenues

  11. Theory of Stakeholder Engagement: Relevance & Context Studies indicate that involving stakeholders early on leads to research products that feature: • Relevant information • Applicable evidence • Real-world context • Information to address existing stakeholder concerns • What are the best oral medicines to treat for type 2 diabetes? • Topic submitted by the American College of Physicians, a professional association representing 132,000 medical practitioners across the nation

  12. Theory of Stakeholder Engagement:Knowledge Exchange Involving stakeholders in the research process facilitates:

  13. Knowledge Transfer vs. Knowledge Exchange

  14. Engagement Exercise 1:Stakeholder Engagement Techniques Think about which of the following stakeholder involvement techniques have been used by you or your research team: • Discussing/identifying potential research topics with stakeholders • Attending meetings of stakeholder groups/organizations • Presenting information or findings at meetings of stakeholder organizations • Asking clinical experts to help develop or clarify a research suggestion • Involving stakeholders in developing research questions • Involving patients & consumers or frontline clinicians in topic refinement activities • Posting draft documents for review and comment • Publishing findings in journals, newsletter, etc.

  15. Engagement Exercise 2:Knowledge Transfer vs. Knowledge Exchange The following slide provides examples of stakeholder engagement techniques. For each example, please consider if the activity is a form of knowledge transfer or knowledge exchange.

  16. Engagement Exercise 2:Knowledge Transfer vs. Knowledge Exchange • Discussing/soliciting potential research questions with stakeholders • Attending meetings of stakeholder groups/organizations • Presenting information or findings at meetings of stakeholder groups/organizations • Involving a nominator in topic refinement activities • Posting a draft document for review & comment • Publishing findings in journals, newsletters, etc.

  17. Engagement Exercise 2: AnswersKnowledge Transfer vs. Knowledge Exchange Knowledge Exchange • Discussing/soliciting potential research questions with stakeholders • Involving a nominator in topic refinement activities • Posting a draft document for review & comment Knowledge Transfer • Attending meetings of stakeholder groups/organizations • Presenting information or findings at meetings of stakeholder groups/organizations • Publishing findings in journals, newsletters, etc.

  18. Theory of Stakeholder Engagement: Application of Evidence Involving stakeholders in the research process leads to applicable research products that: • Address specific questions with appropriate context • Are useable and actionable • Incorporate wider contextual issues • Are accepted and valued by end-users

  19. Theory of Stakeholder Engagement:Dissemination Avenues Involving stakeholders in the research process can lead to dissemination opportunities through: • Advocacy organizations • Professional societies • Family and friends • Clinicians • Health care systems • Payers • Public programs

  31. EHC Program Principles Key principles identified by the EHC Program to guide research activities include: • Research must be relevant and timely to meet the needs of decision-makers • Public participation and transparency increase public confidence in the scientific integrity, credibility of research processes, and provide further accountability to researchers (Slutsky, et al., 2008)

  32. Patient-Centered Approach to CER • Central to evidence-based medicine • Research should address patient & consumer concerns • Requires different techniques

  33. AHRQ & Patient-Centered Approach to CER One of the overarching principles of the EHC Program is to conduct CERs by approaching the evidence by a clinical, patient-centered perspective. (Helfand & Balshem ,2009; Slutsky, et. al., 2008)

  34. Engagement Exercise 4:Patient-Centered Research There are many ways researchers can demonstrate that their work is patient-centered. Please think of three examples of how your work has been patient-centered.

  35. Examples of Patient-Centered Approaches • Providing public access and opportunity to comment on draft documents • Focusing reports on outcomes and measures important to patients and their clinicians • Documenting and making publicly available the processes used to develop a report

  36. Examples of Patient-Centered Approaches (Cont) • Involving patients and their clinicians in: • Generating and prioritizing research topics and questions • Identifying and refining key questions • Planning, developing and updating reviews and protocols/reports • Consulting during report development • Contributing to other dissemination & translational activities • Collecting patient “testimonials” that illustrate the context and circumstances of patients

  37. Summary of Module I • AHRQ’s vision for stakeholder engagement is inclusive, broad, and evolving • AHRQ’s expectation for stakeholder engagement is outlined in the initial legislation and current ARRA spend plan • Evidence suggests there are many benefits to engaging stakeholders in research • Principles of comparative effectiveness research (CER) and stakeholder engagement align closely
