Since the early 1990s, numerous national and international pressure ulcers/injuries CPGs have been published and updated.1 However, developing and updating guidelines in itself will not improve patient care without effective dissemination and implementation. Dissemination is the process through which new health information is spread from developers/researchers to health professionals who will implement new practice.2 Effective dissemination of a guideline is a necessary first step in achieving the best clinical practice recommended within a guideline.3application/pdfen-AU© 2020 The authors202010.1111/wrr.128232021-02-14
