The purpose of health services research is to contribute knowledge that can be used to help improve health systems and clinical services through influencing policy and practice. The methods used are broad, have varying levels of rigor, and may require different specialist skills. This paper sets out practical steps for undertaking health services research. Importantly, use of the highlighted techniques can identify solutions to address inadequate knowledge translation or promote greater access to evidence-based stroke care to optimize patient outcomes. | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/17169 | DOI: | 10.1177/1747493017750924 | ORCID: | 0000-0001-8162-682X | Journal: | International Journal of Stroke | PubMed URL: | 29299958 | PubMed URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29299958 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Stroke health services research methods quality improvement |
