Marginalized evidence: effective knowledge translation strategies for low awareness issues.
There are particular knowledge translation (KT) challenges in communicating evidence on low awareness topics. Often considered peripheral to the main focus of health care provision, these issues may fail to "get on the agenda" of decision-makers, even when supported by strong evidence. This article describes the successful application of KT strategies to a specific low awareness issue (the importance of using trained health interpreters) within a large Canadian Regional Health Authority.
