Knowledge translation helps close a gap
When education and persuasion of doctors cannot close the gap between evidence and practice, "knowledge translation" may — by including groups other than doctors and investigating issues more comprehensively than the educational strategies of CME and CPD. This system of exchange, synthesis, and ethically sound application of knowledge can capture the benefits of research, say Davis and colleagues (p 33). They present a model containing interventions that might be effective at various stages of the change process, which could promote the rapid uptake of evidence based knowledge.
