Dissemination

Throughout the study, the project leads and the research team have disseminated the project and emergent findings in a varied range of conferences, seminars and journals.

Conferences and seminars include:

UK Stroke Forum 2016, 28–30 November 2016, Liverpool, UK
UK Stroke Forum 2017, 28–30 November 2016, Liverpool, UK
UK Stroke Forum 2018, 4–6 December 2018, Telford, UK
How2CoPro Event, 12 March 2019, St George’s, University of London, London, UK
King’s College London, Research Seminar, November 2017
South London Stroke Research Network Meeting, June 2017
European Stroke Organisation Conference (ESOC) 2017, 16–17 May 2017, Prague, Czech Republic
ESOC 2018, 16–May 2018, Gothenburg, Sweden
Health Services Research UK (HSR UK) Conference, 6–7 July 2017, Nottingham, UK
ESOC 2019, 22–24 May 2019, Milan, Italy
HSR UK, Conference, 2–3 July 2019, Manchester, UK.

The rapid evidence synthesis has been published:

Clarke D, Jones F, Harris R, Robert G, Collaborative Rehabilitation Environments in Acute Stroke (CREATE) team. What outcomes are associated with developing and implementing co-produced interventions in acute healthcare settings? A rapid evidence synthesis. BMJ Open 2017;7:e014650.

Research teams have also held ‘feedback events’ at all sites to disseminate findings to all stakeholders.

At sites 1 and 3, local newspapers published articles about the project and the changes that occurred on the wards.

CREATE has gained followers on its Twitter account and we continue to update our followers about the project via our account @CREATE_project_.

In the longer term, our dissemination routes are to produce guidance for stroke units to use accelerated EBCD on their units to increase activity, and to run a training session at the UK Stroke Forum.

We will visit stroke units and spread this work through our national and international networks.
