This feature briefly examines the development of knowledge translation, knowledge transfer and the knowledge broker role as constituting the next manifestation of the movement that brought us evidence based medicine and its derivatives. It examines the extent to which health information professionals currently meet the specification for a knowledge broker role. In doing so it assesses the strengths and weaknesses of the profession when ranged alongside the five components of the knowledge transfer process that is, problem identification; knowledge development and selection; analysis of context; knowledge transfer interventions; and knowledge utilization. Current deficiencies also lie in a need for political astuteness and awareness and in a lack of knowledge of the most significant models of behavioural change. The feature concludes by examining the potential for knowledge team approaches arguing that gains from a wider perspective that encompasses the entire knowledge process may be even more significant than the pooling of collective knowledge, skills and expertise.
这篇特写简要考察了知识转化、知识转移以及知识经纪人角色的发展，它们构成了使我们获得循证医学及其衍生品的运动的下一个表现形式。它考察了卫生信息专业人员目前在多大程度上符合知识经纪人角色的规范。在这样做的过程中，它评估了该专业与知识转移过程的五个组成部分（即问题识别；知识开发和选择；背景分析；知识转移干预措施；以及知识利用）并列时的优势和劣势。当前的不足还在于需要政治敏锐性和意识，以及缺乏对最重要的行为改变模型的了解。这篇特写通过考察知识团队方法的潜力得出结论，认为从更广泛的角度（包括整个知识过程）获得的收益可能比集体知识、技能和专业知识的汇集更为重要。
