Changing Health-Related Behaviors 4: Realizing Impact of Health Research Through Knowledge Translation. 2021

Kate Lambert, and Krista Mahoney, and Patrick S Parfrey
Research Assistant, Memorial Medical School, NL, Canada.

Knowledge translation (KT) is critical to realizing real-world impacts from health research by reducing the amount of time it takes for evidence to inform practice. One way this is achieved is by engaging with knowledge users throughout the process to ensure that research responds to their needs. It is also important to share the study results in a way that is useful, accessible, and relevant to knowledge user groups. KT planning involves multiple categories described in templates that are available online and referenced in the text. Common knowledge translation challenges and suggested solutions, as well as real-world KT examples, are also provided.
