Physical and occupational therapists' perceptions of sustainability of a knowledge translation intervention to improve the use of outcome measures in inpatient rehabilitation: a qualitative study.

This study found proper selection of outcomes measures is important and attributed the sustainability of the knowledge translation intervention to organizational support, clinician engagement and ongoing training. The clinicians wanted continued training to overcome new barriers. Barriers identified in this study were unique to the typical barriers identified for outcome measure use. Ongoing barrier assessments are needed for continued refinement of knowledge translation interventions to enhance sustainability.
