Abstract

The 3 pillars that are effective in improving trainee performance and retention among busy early career investigators are companionship, light, and fuel.The research training process is a long-term journey where having companionship from peers and senior colleagues is essential.Strong mentorship provides light along the way whose successes can serve as lighthouses and beacons while illuminating the paths of early career investigators.Seed grants enable trainees to actually do research, applying what they have learned into practice to make a difference in global cardiovascular health.

Abstract

Highlights NCD represent a serious challenge globally, particularly in LMIC.Implementation research capacity building are critical to inform the prevention and control of NCD in LMIC.Sustainable evidence-based strategies can reduce mortality and prevent avoidable illness from NCD.Strategic change agents (i.e., key stakeholders, institutions, communities, health systems, patients, and families) should work collaboratively to make the necessary advancements to reducing the burden of NCD in LMIC.

Abstract

There is growing support for stakeholder engagement in health research, but the actual impact of such engagement has not been well established. This paper describes the stakeholder engagement process and evaluation during the planning of the national needs assessment for cardiovascular disease in Nepal. We used personal and professional networks to identify relevant stakeholders within the 7Ps framework (Patients and the Public, Providers, Purchasers, Payers, Public Policy Makers and Policy Advocates, Product Makers and the Principal Investigators) to develop a plan for assessing cardiovascular health needs in Nepal. We consulted 40 stakeholders through 2 meetings in small groups and a workshop in a large group to develop the study methods, conceptual framework, and stakeholder engagement process. We interviewed 33 stakeholders to receive feedback on the stakeholder engagement process. We engaged 80% of the targeted stakeholders through small group discussions and a workshop. Three of 5 recommendations from the small group discussion were aimed at improving the stakeholder engagement process and 2 were aimed to improve the research methods. Eleven of 27 recommendations from the workshop aimed to improve the research methods, 4 aimed to improve stakeholder engagement, and 2 helped to expand the scope of dissemination. Ten were irrelevant or could not be incorporated due to resource limitation. Most stakeholders noted that the workshop provided an open platform for a multisectoral group to colearn from one another and share ideas. Others highlighted that the discussion generated insights to enhance research by incorporating expertise and ideas from different perspectives. The major challenges discussed were about committing the time for engagement. The stakeholder engagement process positively affected the design of our research. This study provides important insights for future researchers that aim to engage stakeholders in national-level assessment programs in the health care system in the context of Nepal. • The stakeholder engagement process through small group discussions and a workshop positively affected the design of our research. • Eleven of 27 recommendations from the workshop aimed to improve the research methods, 4 aimed to improve stakeholder engagement, and 2 helped to expand the scope of dissemination. • Most stakeholders noted that the workshop provided an open platform for a multisectoral group to colearn from one another and share ideas • This study provides important insights for future researchers that aim to engage stakeholders in national-level assessment programs in the health care system in Nepal.
