Abstract:Background
Healthcare costs are rising, and a substantial proportion of medical care is of little value. De-implementation of low-value practices is important for improving overall health outcomes and reducing costs. We aimed to identify and synthesize randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on de-implementation interventions and to provide guidance to improve future research.

“…Zadro et al 9 emphasize the need for a review on effective interventions. Although there are several reviews on the effect of de-implementation interventions, [10][11][12][13] none of these reviews provide a clear guidance on the type of intervention for a certain low-value care practice or context. We need especially more evidence on how to develop and evaluate interventions, and moreover preserve results and spread effective de-implementation interventions.…”

“…Randomized controlled trials and quasi‐experimental studies are needed to test multilevel strategies for de‐implementation, ideally incorporating mixed methods approaches to understand any differences across clinical contexts and patient populations. Structured evaluation of initiatives will lead to refinements in current approaches, evidence about which strategies are most effective in different settings, as well as a better understanding of how to sustain de‐implementation 7 . Understanding and continuing to develop effective methods for de‐implementation will further the provision of evidence‐based, high‐value patient care.…”

“…Identifying the barriers and facilitators to the de‐implementation of the particular low‐value service in that specific healthcare context leads to the fifth factor—selection of the most appropriate multilevel strategies to achieve successful practice change. Select barriers to de‐implementation and strategies to address them are shown in Table 1 1,5–10 …”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
