Dr Maurie Markman discusses the importance of implementation research to address pragmatic questions.
Professor of Medical Oncology and Therapeutics Research, City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center; President, Medicine & Science, City of Hope Atlanta, Chicago, PhoenixHello. I’m Dr Maurie Markman, from City of Hope. I would like to briefly discuss a very interesting paper that appeared in
This specific study looked at individuals who were scheduled to receive or were candidates to receive COVID-19 booster vaccinations. The question came up of if you gave them free rides to the location — this is obviously a high-risk population — would that increase the vaccination rate vs the other item that they were looking at here, which was potentially texting them to remind them?
Again, it was a very pragmatic question that the trial addressed, and one might use this information in the future to increase the vaccination rate of a population where it is critical to do so. This type of research, in my opinion, should be encouraged, which involves looking at very pragmatic questions and answering what is the optimal and most cost-effective way of doing it.
