Abstract

Introduction: Process evaluation studies are recommended to improve our understanding of intervention studies. Objective: to document the translation of a type 2 diabetes (T2DM) prevention program in the routine setting of several primary care centers. Methods: A descriptive observational study was conducted. A passive dissemination strategy of providing training and materials to implement the intervention was used. Results: About half of the patients examined were identified as having a high risk of developing DT2. Conclusion: The passive diffusion strategy has produced modest process indicators related to adoption and has reduced the possibility of its standardized application in heterogeneous contexts
