“…The terms "knowledge translation" recalls the concept of a foreign language which is literally translated into a different language in a divergent context (Secundo et al, 2019b). Savory (2006) stresses how the social nature of knowledge does not allow to talk about a "knowledge transfer" simply.…”

Knowledge translation (KT) is the ability to make knowledge accessible to different stakeholders by translating it into various contexts. Translating knowledge is particularly crucial in the healthcare sector, which is currently under significant pressure due to technological innovation, increasing demand of services by an ageing population, budget reductions, and new organisational challenges posed by the latest events like the COVID‑19 pandemic. While the first definition of KT was focused on the translation of scientific research into clinical practice, other types of KT later emerged. In healthcare, while stakeholders have different skills and competencies (such as clinical scientists versus physicians or other healthcare professionals), others experience diverse emotional feelings (like the patients or their families). An effective KT allows the transfer, sharing, and creation of new knowledge, enhancing innovation and co‑production dynamics. The paper employs a case study by analysing the Breast Unit of the C.R.O. National Cancer Institue of Aviano, Italy, one of the most acknowledged hospitals and research centres in Europe in the field of cancer surgery and treatments. The paper aims at studying the knowledge translation dynamics and tools by analysing the various relationships with the internal as well as the external stakeholders of the Breast Unit. Internally, knowledge translation is needed to merge the competencies of highly skilled multidisciplinary teams, which include surgeons and physicians with various specialities, researchers, psychologists, nurses and other healthcare professionals. Externally, knowledge is translated to meet the needs of patients, patients' associations, sponsors, citizens, and policymakers. Results highlight how different techniques and dynamics allow KT to happen within internal as well as external groups. Contributing to the knowledge management and knowledge translation theories, our findings open up to practical as well as research implications.

“…The probability of stratification of random samples is employed to collect data from colleges at the private university in order to estimate the relationship between the three factors towards individual performance. From the exploratory study, a pilot guide was provided to determine the second factor which contributes more to enhancing the performance of individuals in the educational organisation (Secundo et al, 2019). Furthermore, (Laguía et al, 2019) studied how job enrichment can improve job satisfaction at Sokoine University of Agriculture in Tanzania.…”

“…Interestingly, previous studies have identified the importance of design to facilitate the knowledge translation process (Secundo et al, 2019;Simeone et al, 2017Simeone et al, , 2018. Our study wants to contribute to the current debate by analysing the role of knowledge translation in coproduction processes in the healthcare sector by investigating the case of "Oncology in Motion", a co-production experience conducted by one Italian oncological centre devoted to breast cancer patients.…”

“…Knowledge translation in healthcare may include the translation of scientific research into clinical practice (Barcellini et al, 2020;Cobianchi et al, 2016;Graham et al, 2006;Turin et al, 2018), the relationship among healthcare staff, researchers and developers (Biancuzzi et al, 2020a, b;Cobianchi et al, 2020;Straus et al, 2008), the connection between the healthcare professionals and the patients (Kerosuo, 2010) and vice versa (the so-called "Narrative Medicine") (Angelos, 2020;Baigorri et al, 2013), the translation of clinical practice and protocols into policies (Ward et al, 2012) and the relationship between the government agencies and citizens and institutions (Giesbrecht et al, 2009;Wallace, 2012). Knowledge translation as an ongoing process has several steps, which involve producer-user interaction and a continuous assessment (Secundo et al, 2019). These steps include knowledge production or co-production, adaptation, dissemination, reception, adoption, appropriation and use (Lemire et al, 2013).…”

PurposeThe paper aims to contribute to the debate concerning the use of knowledge translation for implementing co-production processes in the healthcare sector. The study investigates a case study, in which design was used to trigger knowledge translation and foster co-production.Design/methodology/approachThe paper employs a case study methodology by analysing the experience of “Oncology in Motion”, a co-production program devoted to the recovery of breast cancer patients carried on by the IRCCS C.R.O. of Aviano, Italy.FindingsResults show how design could help to translate knowledge from various stakeholders with different skills (e.g. scientists, physicians, nurses) and emotional engagement (e.g. patients and patients' associations) during all the phases of a co-production project to support breast cancer patients in a recovery path. Stewardship theory is used to show that oncology represents a specific research context.Practical implicationsThe paper highlights the vast practical contribution that design can have in empowering knowledge translation at different levels and in a variety of co-production phases, among different stakeholders, facilitating their engagement and the achievement of the desired outcomes.Originality/valueThe paper contributes to the literature on knowledge translation in co-production projects in the healthcare sector showing how design can be effectively implemented.
