Yes, indeed what I am thinking of is deliberate de-implementation strategies...aside of some retrospective studies (done to demonstrate after-the-fact change in practice) it seems that there are more methodological and white-paper statements then actual prospective, deliberate de-implementation strategies...Now, a number of people sent me some interesting papers, so this impression may change after I review all contributions (probably in about 2 weeks); so, if anyone is aware of an example of deliberate, prospective de-implementation of any medical interventions, please send it along Thanks ben From: Evidence based health (EBH) [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Bewley, Susan Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2020 3:14 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Examples of successful de-implementation strategies.... Are you thinking of deliberate de-implementation or things that have fallen by the wayside (for whatever reason) It would be wonderful to have a set of 'rules' for de-implementation if they are not already devised (maybe especially of screening - because the prevalence fell with another strategy or treatments became so much better the benefit:harm ratio changed). Telling the population in advance that all screening programmes are temporary might be a start. We used to XR loads of populations for TB (till it went away... only to return), we stopped thyroid cancer screening, we need to wean populations off breast screening etc. Susan Bewley MA MD FRCOG Professor (emeritus) of Obstetrics and Women's Health c/o Department of Women and Children's Health School of Life Course Sciences King's College London 10th Floor, North Wing St. Thomas' Hospital Westminster Bridge Road LONDON SE1 7EH Tel: 020 7188 3639 Mob 07984 907 548 skype sjbewley @susan_bewley Websites: http://kcl.academia.edu/susanbewley<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/kcl.academia.edu/susanbewley__;!!Fou38LsQmgU!72JvHFWvsr3HkAxz54JRmT_KbKj5c5QVanj2mjOXW-CbYspTF7DFRh_992dOPlYt-g$> http://www.kcl.ac.uk/schools/medicine/research/hscr/staff/bewley.html<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.kcl.ac.uk/schools/medicine/research/hscr/staff/bewley.html__;!!Fou38LsQmgU!72JvHFWvsr3HkAxz54JRmT_KbKj5c5QVanj2mjOXW-CbYspTF7DFRh_992dVSqaubg$> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susan_Bewley<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susan_Bewley__;!!Fou38LsQmgU!72JvHFWvsr3HkAxz54JRmT_KbKj5c5QVanj2mjOXW-CbYspTF7DFRh_992dpOJkMNA$> P Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail! ________________________________ From: Evidence based health (EBH) <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> on behalf of Bill Cayley, Jr <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> Sent: 17 January 2020 22:27 To: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> Subject: Re: Examples of successful de-implementation strategies....
