Although implementation strategies used to support an intervention during efficacy/effectiveness studies may differ from those needed in real-world routine care, documenting the former provides an opportunity to inform the latter.4 In the current study, we asked authors of the studies included in the recent meta-analysis1 to share which implementation strategies were used to support the BSPs under investigation, then compared their responses with descriptions of implementation strategies in their publications...
