Abstract

Objectives To explore whether a James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership could provide insights on knowledge translation within the field of degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM). Design Secondary analysis of a James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership process for DCM. Participants and setting DCM stake holders, including spinal surgeons, people with myelopathy and other healthcare professionals, were surveyed internationally. Research suggestions submitted by stakeholders but considered answered were identified. Sampling characteristics of respondents were compared with the overall cohort to identify subgroups underserved by current knowledge translation. Results The survey was completed by 423 individuals from 68 different countries. A total of 22% of participants submitted research suggestions that were considered a € answered'. There was a significant difference between responses from different stakeholder groups (p<0.005). Spinal surgeons were the group which was most likely to submit an a € answered' research question. Respondents from South America were also most likely to submit a € answered' questions, when compared with other regions. However, there was no significant difference between responses from different stakeholder regions (p=0.4). Conclusions Knowledge translation challenges exist within DCM. This practical approach to measuring knowledge translation may offer a more responsive assessment to guide interventions, complementing existing metrics. © 2023 BMJ Publishing Group.
