Government departments and not-for-profit agencies expend significant resources commissioning and conducting research, only to find their resulting lengthy reports shelved and unused. In this case study, we describe a project that developed short, policy-relevant research summaries of topics prioritized by the Ontario Women's Health Council, an advisory body to the province's Minister of Health and Long-Term Care. These products were created based on an understanding of policy makers' needs and work contexts and were designed to help users find, understand and utilize research evidence to inform their clinical, programmatic and policy decision-making.
政府部门和非营利机构投入大量资源委托并开展研究,结果却发现生成的长篇报告被束之高阁,无人使用。在本案例研究中,我们描述了一个项目,该项目针对安大略省妇女健康理事会(该省卫生和长期护理部部长的咨询机构)确定优先次序的主题,编写了简短且与政策相关的研究摘要。这些产品是在了解政策制定者的需求和工作背景的基础上创建的,旨在帮助用户查找、理解并利用研究证据,为其临床、项目和政策决策提供信息。
