Part 2
Embedded co-design and evaluation of feasibility of interventions




Data collection:

There were two co-design workshops per site and three PPIE workshops, followed by two evaluation workshops.  


9 workshops
Co-design 


2 evaluation workshops
Acceptability and feasibility 

Meetings
PPIE and expert advisory 
group meetings



In each workshop, participants were hospital staff or patients. 

1. Co-design Workshop One (In-Person): This workshop utilised visual materials and tools to conceptualise the issues and pathways identified from observations and ethnographic design work following Part One.   

2. Co-design Workshop Two (In-Person): Focused on emerging themes and issues identified from Workshop One, this workshop laid the foundation for the intervention focus. 

3. PPIE Workshops (In-Person and online): Focused on patient journeys to inform intervention design.    

4. Evaluation Workshop (In-Person): In these workshops, participants used the toolkit to select interventions and assessed feasibility.

Data analysis: Co-design workshop outputs were synthesised, including visual analysis of workshop outputs, discussions, and summary of the rationale of ideation and development of the design interventions. Initial interventions generated from across the three sites were compared to identify shared solutions for behaviour change and collective action.

Important to note: We also held a national workshop with 4 leads for blood culture improvement from trusts to assess transferability. We have developed and finalised the toolkit for trusts to use to improve their blood culture sampling pathway.
