Abstract: Health research results are primarily disseminated through scientific peer-reviewed journals and are not readily accessible to patients and caregivers, which can impede informed decision-making and limit the impact of research on patient outcomes. The aim of the workshop was to identify strategies to disseminate research in chronic kidney disease (CKD) to patients and caregivers. The workshop involved patients, caregivers (n = 27), and health professionals (n = 54) from Australia (10 breakout groups). The transcripts were thematically analyzed. Three themes (strategies) were identified. Generating interestencompassed emphasizing the benefits and impacts of research, using engaging modes of delivery, increasing visibility in clinical settings, and harnessing popular culture. Eliminating barriers to accessincluded ensuring free access to journal articles, translating into different languages, providing plain-language summaries, considering convenience in the context of CKD-related burdens, and maximizing exposure. Demonstrating trustworthiness and reputeentailed filtering for high-quality information and propagating through familiar networks and community-based channels. Ensuring ease of access to research, drawing attention, and prompting motivation to engage in research, and instilling confidence in patients about the quality of research may support effective dissemination. Adopting patient-prioritized models to increase translation of research may support shared decision-making in practice and improve care and patient outcomes.
