Development and testing of the Stakeholder Quality Improvement Perspectives Survey (SQuIPS).
The authors created a theory-informed survey that quality improvement (QI) teams can use to understand stakeholder perceptions of an intervention. Through a cross-sectional survey of QI stakeholders, they found that The Stakeholder Quality Improvement Perspectives Survey was feasible for QI teams to use, and it identified stakeholder perspectives about QI interventions that leaders used to alter their QI interventions to potentially increase the likelihood of stakeholder acceptance of the intervention.

Feasibility and acceptability of a Neonatal Project ECHO (NeoECHO) as a dissemination and implementation strategy to prevent necrotizing enterocolitis.
Investigators examined the feasibility and acceptability of the care tools bundle NeoECHO to disseminate NEC-Zero education and describe the intentions of internal facilitators and clinicians to initiate quality improvement changes. They found that NeoECHO was an acceptable and feasible way to engage under-resourced NICUs and share NEC-Zero evidence and tools. They recommended more research to examine the impact of NeoECHO on care processes and patient outcomes.
