“…Nursing has a rich history in translation science as shown by the seminal work on research use (Horsley et al, 1983, Kirchhoff, 2004and Titler, 2004. However, the strategies and interventions to translate research findings into practice were not clearly elucidated in these initiatives, thus calling for the granted for this version to appear in e-Publications@Marquette.…”

“…Consequently, consulting evidence to guide practice may be given low priority by nurses themselves or by their administrators. A number of commentators (Estabrooks 1998; Nilsson Kajermo et al 1998; Kirchoff 2004; Tierney 2004) have pointed out the need to consider the accumulated experience, traditions, and values of a health care setting in encouraging the integration of evidence into practice. As O'Donnell (2004) has observed, “nurses have a broader and more holistic view of evidence, including qualitative research and local findings” (p. 198; Estabrooks 1998; Tierney 2004).…”

“…Hospital-based health information technology (HIT) implementation research is needed to identify reproducible strategies to eliminate barriers to HIT use and promote its adoption and integration [1]. We found few studies of HIT implementation, and this absence may contribute to the slow and inconsistent adoption of HIT observed in hospitals [2].…”

BackgroundImplementing new practices, such as health information technology (HIT), is often difficult due to the disruption of the highly coordinated, interdependent processes (e.g., information exchange, communication, relationships) of providing care in hospitals. Thus, HIT implementation may occur slowly as staff members observe and make sense of unexpected disruptions in care. As a critical organizational function, sensemaking, defined as the social process of searching for answers and meaning which drive action, leads to unified understanding, learning, and effective problem solving -- strategies that studies have linked to successful change. Project teamwork is a change strategy increasingly used by hospitals that facilitates sensemaking by providing a formal mechanism for team members to share ideas, construct the meaning of events, and take next actions.MethodsIn this longitudinal case study, we aim to examine project teams' sensemaking and action as the team prepares to implement new information technology in a tiertiary care hospital. Based on management and healthcare literature on HIT implementation and project teamwork, we chose sensemaking as an alternative to traditional models for understanding organizational change and teamwork. Our methods choices are derived from this conceptual framework. Data on project team interactions will be prospectively collected through direct observation and organizational document review. Through qualitative methods, we will identify sensemaking patterns and explore variation in sensemaking across teams. Participant demographics will be used to explore variation in sensemaking patterns.DiscussionOutcomes of this research will be new knowledge about sensemaking patterns of project teams, such as: the antecedents and consequences of the ongoing, evolutionary, social process of implementing HIT; the internal and external factors that influence the project team, including team composition, team member interaction, and interaction between the project team and the larger organization; the ways in which internal and external factors influence project team processes; and the ways in which project team processes facilitate team task accomplishment. These findings will lead to new methods of implementing HIT in hospitals.
