Abstract

Picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) is a complex and vast subject, about which much has been written. A Visual Guide to PACS is an overview of the subject presented as an efficient reference for hospital and department administrators planning for and implementing PACS. A Visual Guide to PACS is adapted from presentation materials developed by Integration Resources/GORCA to capsulize issues relating to PACS. The authors aim to communicate the broad parameter and some of the complexity of the subject.

How can we increase translation of research into practice? Types of evidence needed.

This review summarizes key factors that have interfered with translation of research to practice and what public health researchers can do to hasten such transfer, focusing on characteristics of interventions, target settings, and research designs. The need to address context and to utilize research, review, and reporting practices that address external validity issues-such as designs that focus on replication, and practical clinical and behavioral trials-are emphasized. Although there has been increased emphasis on social-ecological interventions that go beyond the individual level, interventions often address each component as if it were an independent intervention. Greater attention is needed to connectedness across program levels and components. Finally, examples are provided of evaluation models and current programs that can help accelerate translation of research to practice and policy.
