Restructuring Study Sections in Healthcare Delivery and Methodologies Integrated Review Group Kate Bent, RN, PhD, CNS Chief, Healthcare Delivery and Methodologies Integrated Review Group Peer Review Advisory Committee 2/1/2010 National Institutes of HealthU.S. Department of Health and Human Services
HDM Study Section averages/round Number of Applications HDM total: 800/round
Exploratory Process • March 2009: Internal CSR Review • Chairs of all Study Sections • Reviewers • CSR Leadership • October 2009: Advisory Group Meeting • External experts • IRG staff • IC representatives • Nov 2009 - Jan 2010: comments and revisions • NIH community • Academic community
HDM IRG Advisory Group – Oct. 2009 • Teri Albrecht, Wayne State • Claudia Baquet, U Maryland • Yvonne Bryant, NINR • David Chambers, NIMH • Zohara Cohen, NIBIB • Vicki Conn, U Missouri • Marie Davidian, NC State • Dave Davis, AAMC • Lisa Klesges, U Memphis • Rick Kodish, Case Western • Randy Miller, Vanderbilt • Brian Mittman, VA QUERI • Abby Rives, NIH Ofc of Biotech • Lynn Sommers, U Penn • Marita Titler, U Mich • Mary Ellen Wewers, Ohio State

Consensus view • Develop guidelines for 3 new study sections • Two nursing sections with identical science but split by age not helpful • Consensus ‘lite’: one merged nursing science study section • Monitor closely for increase in size to signal need for later split along conceptual/science lines
Plan to restructure HDM study sections • New • Clinical and Research Ethics (CRE) (≈50) • Health Disparities and Equity Promotion (HDEP) (≈ 55) • Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health (DIRH) (≈ 65) • Merged • NSAA + NSCF >>Nursing and Related Clinical Science (NRCS) (≈ 90) • Total • Old: 7 study sections + recurring SEPs • New: 9 study sections
Possible guidelines • Clinical and Research Ethics • Clinical ethics and the ethical issues in biomedical and behavioral research, public health, and healthcare delivery • Health Disparities & Equity Promotion • Address, reduce or eliminate health disparities in access, treatment, or health outcomes • Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health • Bridging the gap; science about the transmission and implementation of knowledge from scientific discovery
Next Steps • 2010/05 study sections unchanged • 2010/10 implement plan for new and merged study sections as SEPs • New/revised sections chartered and members appointed by October • Monitor: • BMRD, BCHI: shrinking, but 2010/05 spike • NRCS: watch for future growth and need to divide along conceptual lines
