“…The emerging ICAP stakeholder research base captures a range of stakeholders including researcher/clinician and patient-reported outcomes (Auclair-Ouellet et al, 2021;Babbitt et al, 2015;Dignam et al, 2015;Griffin-Musick et al, 2021;Leff et al, 2021;Persad et al, 2013) and some early but limited exploration into patient (Babbitt et al, 2021), caregiver (Off et al, 2019), clinician (Babbitt et al, 2013), and policy (Boyer et al, 2020) perspectives. Student perspectives into ICAPs as a delivery model are currently limited to program implementation studies (Babbitt, et al, 2013;Trebilcock et al, 2019;Trebilcock et al, 2022) with two notable exceptions. Kincheloe et al (2022) qualitatively examined the student perspective TOPICS IN LANGUAGE DISORDERS/JANUARY-MARCH 2023 of participating in an interprofessional education aphasia community group in the context of an ICAP.…”

Purpose: This article characterizes graduate student clinicians' (GSCs') understanding of their roles as stakeholders in clinical implementation and research before participating in an intensive comprehensive aphasia program (ICAP). Method: Seven GSCs participated in a pre-ICAP intervention focus group to characterize their perceived roles in stakeholder-engaged research. Following an extensive ICAP training orientation and clarification of key definitions, the focus group prompt asked GSCs to describe what they view as important issues for developing future research protocols that investigate student clinician outcomes in the context of an ICAP. Qualitative content analysis using an inductive coding approach was applied to the focus group transcript. Results: The GSCs preparing to participate in ICAPs report that they are highly invested in the clinical implementation and research of the ICAP service delivery model. Discussion/Conclusions: The GSCs are crucial stakeholders in the development of GSC-run ICAPs across clinical implementation and all phases of research.

“…Aphasia Nexus is an online KT platform that has been developed for use by speech pathologists to guide the implementation of multinational aphasia best‐practice recommendations (Simmons‐Mackie et al., 2017), specifically, improvements in the intensity and comprehensiveness of aphasia services. Aphasia Nexus has been developed using a multiphase process with the involvement of end‐users (aphasia clinicians) and guided by relevant frameworks of intervention development (Trebilcock et al., 2021). The design process was conducted over three videoconference focus groups and adopted the principles of integrated knowledge translation (IKT) (Graham et al., 2014) with the inclusion of multinational aphasia researchers and clinicians (end‐users).…”

“…It is necessary for researchers to assess this process as a clinical treatment or therapy approach will only be successful if implemented well (Proctor et al., 2010). The development of Aphasia Nexus , an implementation intervention to support changes in clinical practice and therefore improvements in aphasia services, has considered these contextual differences and has attempted to accommodate varying levels of service change tailored to an individual aphasia service (Trebilcock et al., 2021). The difference between a clinical intervention and implementation intervention can often be difficult to decipher (Eldh et al., 2017).…”

Background: Online knowledge translation (KT) approaches are becoming increasingly prevalent within healthcare due to their accessibility and facilitation of international support networks. Online platforms enable timely and far-reaching dissemination of current evidence and best-practice recommendations. Although there is potential to improve the uptake of rehabilitation guidelines, it is essential to consider the acceptability of online approaches to healthcare professionals to ensure their successful integration within everyday clinical settings. Aims: To establish the prospective acceptability of a theoretically informed online intervention for speech pathologists, Aphasia Nexus: Connecting Evidence to Practice, that aims to facilitate the implementation of aphasia best practice. Methods & Procedures:A mixed-methods multinational electronic survey based on the Theoretical Framework of Acceptability (TFA) completed by aphasia researchers and clinicians.Outcomes & Results: A total of 43 participants completed the survey with 91% (n = 39) indicating that they would use Aphasia Nexus. Understanding the intervention and how it works (intervention coherence as per the TFA) was the key factor influencing the likelihood of integration within everyday clinical practice.Participants identified potential areas where the intervention could influence service change and also recommended further design and content changes to improve the intervention. Conclusions & Implications: Aphasia Nexus is an acceptable platform for further feasibility testing in the form of a pilot trial within an Australian-based health service. The study progresses the theory of TFA as it was a valuable framework facilitating the identification of prominent factors influencing accept-This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs License, which permits use and distribution in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited, the use is non-commercial and no modifications or adaptations are made.
