Establishing Barriers to and Enablers of Nurse-Enabled Subcutaneous Therapy Self-Administration Programs for Patients With Myeloma: Protocol for a Qualitative Descriptive Study
To our knowledge, this study will be the first of its kind to identify and compare barriers to and enablers of implementing nurse-enabled SC self-administration programs for patients with MM. Applying the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research to guide study processes provides an evidence-informed approach to understanding how discrete and intersecting factors influence program implementation and sustainability, informing the development of a comprehensive implementation road map. As the availability of SC therapies grows for other cancers and chronic diseases, this model of care could serve as a blueprint for broader applications, impacting patient quality of life and optimization of health care use.
