Publication Recommendations for Implementing the INTERACT3 CareBundle for Intracerebral Hemorrhagein Latin America: Results of a Delphi Method(2024) Allende, María Ignacia; Munoz Venturelli, Paula; González, Francisca; Bascur, Francisca; Craig S., Anderson; Ouyang, Menglu; Cabieses, Báltica; Obach, Alexandra; Cano-Nigenda, Vanessa; Arauz, Antonio; LATAM INTERACT3 Consensus Statement PanelIntroduction: The third Intensive Care Bundle with Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage Trial (INTERACT3) showed that the implementation of a care bundle improves outcomes after acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to establish consensus-based recommendations for the broader integration of the care bundle across Latin American countries (LAC). Methods: A 3-phase Delphi study allowed a panel of 32 healthcare workers from 14 LAC to sequentially rank statements relevant to 7 domains (training, resources/infrastructure, patient education, blood pressure, temperature, glycemic control, and anticoagulation reversal). The pre-defined consensus threshold was 75%. Results: A total of 43 statements reached consensus by the third round, with 12 new statements emerging through rounds. The highest-ranked statements in each domain emphasized critical aspects, but successful implementation requires appropriate resourcing. Key priorities were continuous training of all healthcare workers in ICH management, establishing protocols aligned with available resources, and collaborative interdisciplinary care supported by institutional networks. Statements related to anticoagulation reversal had the highest priority. Conclusions: Consensus statements are provided to facilitate integration of the INTERACT3 care bundle to reduce disparities in ICH outcomes in LAC.Publication Implementation of a goal-directed Care Bundle for intracerebral hemorrhage: Results of embedded process evaluation in the INTERACT3 trial(2024) Ouyang, Menglu; Anjum, Anila; Gonzalez, Francisca; Wasay, Mohammad; Ma, Lu; Hu, Xin; Chen, Xiaoying; Malavera, Alejandra; Li, Xi; Munoz Venturelli, Paula; De Silva, Asita; Nguyen Huy Thang; Wahab, Kolawole; Pandian, Jeyaraj; Pontes-Neto, Octavio; Abanto, Carlos; Cano-Nigenda, Venessa; Arauz, Antonio; You, Chao; Jan, Stephen; Song, Lili; Anderson, Craig; Liu, Hueiming; INTERACT3 InvestigatorsThe third, stepped-wedge, cluster-randomized, Intensive Care Bundle with Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage Trial (INTERACT3), has shown that a goal-directed multi-faceted Care Bundle incorporating protocols for the management of physiological variables was safe and effective for improving functional recovery in a broad range of patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The INTERACT3 Care Bundle included time- and target-based protocols for the management of early intensive lowering of systolic blood pressure (SBP, target <140mmHg), glucose control (target 6.1-7.8 mmol/L in those without diabetes and 7.8-10.0 mmol/L in those with diabetes), anti-pyrexia treatment (target body temperature ≤37.5°C), and the rapid reversal of warfarin-related anticoagulation (target international normalized ratio <1.5). An embedded process evaluation was conducted to allow a better understanding of how the Care Bundle was implemented in different countries to enhance the transferability of this evidence in the international context. This study used a mixed-methods approach involving interviews, focus group discussions, and surveys to evaluate the implementation outcomes included fidelity, dose, reach, acceptability, appropriateness, adoption, and sustainability. Interviews (n = 27), focus group discussions (n = 3), and quantitative surveys (n = 48) were conducted in 7 low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and 1 high-income country during 2019-2022. The Care Bundle was generally delivered as planned and well accepted by stakeholders, although some difficulties were reported in reaching the SBP and glycemic targets. Contextual factors including staff shortage, limited availability of antihypertensive drugs, and delayed systems of care processes, were common barriers to implementing the Care Bundle. Facilitating factors included good communication and collaboration with staff in emergency departments, the development of pathways within available resources, and regular training and monitoring. Our process evaluation provides useful insights into the contextual barriers which need to be addressed for effective scale up of the Care Bundle implementation in a global context. Trial registration: INTERACT3 is registered at Clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03209258) and the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR-IOC-17011787).
