We encourage trialists to consider using it in their next trial. The NPT is a new theory which offers trialists a consistent framework that can be used to describe, assess and enhance implementation potential.
#Principle of intervention origin trial#
The need to ensure trial procedures that are feasible and compatible with clinical practice is not limited to trials of complex interventions, and NPT may improve trial design by highlighting potential problems with recruitment or data collection, as well as ensuring the intervention has good implementation potential.
In this paper, we suggest that the NPT can act as a sensitising tool, enabling researchers to think through issues of implementation while designing a complex intervention and its evaluation. The Normalisation Process Theory (NPT) addresses the factors needed for successful implementation and integration of interventions into routine work (normalisation). To date, there is still a problematic gap between research and implementation.
Such interventions can only have a significant impact on health and health care if they are shown to be effective when tested, are capable of being widely implemented and can be normalised into routine practice. The past decade has seen considerable interest in the development and evaluation of complex interventions to improve health.
