Abstract

Introduction: Overweight and obesity are major public health concerns in Germany. As patients can easily be accessed via physicians' offices, this setting provides a high potential for prevention. However, the limited implementation of prevention and health promotion interventions in physicians' offices so far indicates that barriers to implementation exist. This study therefore addresses how obesity prevention interventions should be designed and implemented so that health care providers perceive them as appropriate and are willing to adopt them in their daily practice. The study is performed by taking the Innovation Fund project ''GeMuKi as an example. Methods: A mixed-methods study was conducted. Data collection took place within the context of the GeMuKi training session that health care providers complete in preparation for implementing the intervention. Gynecologists, pediatricians, midwives, and medical assistants completed a questionnaire. The questions covered the implementation outcomes appropriateness'' and adoption''. Text entry fields were used to obtain information on feasibility as well as anticipated facilitating and hindering factors. In addition, observation protocols were prepared for each training session by the project team. The questionnaire was analyzed descriptively. Text entry fields and protocols were evaluated using qualitative content analysis. Results: Four hundred and one (n = 401) training participants completed the questionnaire. Almost three quarters (73 %) of the health care providers indicate that they are motivated to implement the intervention. At the same time, concerns are expressed about organizational feasibility in everyday practice. Nevertheless, 72 % expect their care to improve as a result of the project. Conclusion: The health care providers surveyed are positive about the implementation of the project in everyday practice. By documenting concerns about the implementation, the barriers identified can be addressed during the project course.
