| Popis: | In 2021, the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) launched In Our DNA SC. This large-scale initiative will screen 100,000 individuals in South Carolina for three preventable hereditary conditions that impact approximately two million people in the USA but often go undetected. In anticipation of inevitable changes to the delivery of this complex initiative, we developed an approach to track and assess the impact of evaluate adaptations made during the pilot phase of program implementation. We used a modified version of the Framework for Reporting Adaptations and Modification-Enhanced (FRAME) and Adaptations to code adaptations made during the 3-month pilot phase of In Our DNA SC. Adaptations were documented in real-time using a REDCap database. We used segmented linear regression models to independently test three hypotheses about the impact of adaptations on program reach (rate of enrollment in the program, rate of messages viewed) and implementation (rate of samples collected) 7 days pre- and post-adaptation. Effectiveness was assessed using qualitative observations. Ten adaptations occurred during the pilot phase of program implementation. Most adaptations (60%) were designed to increase the number and type of patient contacted (reach). Adaptations were primarily made based on knowledge and experience (40%) or from quality improvement data (30%). Of the three adaptations designed to increase reach, shortening the recruitment message potential patients received significantly increased the average rate of invitations viewed by 7.3% (p = 0.0106). There was no effect of adaptations on implementation (number of DNA samples collected). Qualitative findings support improvement in effectiveness of the intervention after shortening the consent form and short-term positive impact on uptake of the intervention as measured by team member’s participation. Our approach to tracking adaptations of In Our DNA SC allowed our team to quantify the utility of modifications, make decisions about pursuing the adaptation, and understand consequences of the change. Streamlining tools for tracking and responding to adaptations can help monitor the incremental impact of interventions to support continued learning and problem solving for complex interventions being delivered in health systems based on real-time data. |
