SMALL RESEARCH GRANTS FOR PRIMARY CARE PRACTICE-BASED RESEARCH NETWORKS (PBRNs): The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) invites primary care practice-based research networks (PBRNs) to apply for small research grants to conduct exploratory/pilot projects or feasibility studies. A PBRN is defined as a group of ambulatory practices devoted principally to the primary care of patients, affiliated with each other (and often with an academic or professional organization) in order to investigate questions related to community-based practice and to improve the quality of primary care. This definition includes a sense of ongoing commitment to network activities and an organizational structure that transcends a single project. Although a major objective is to encourage creative, investigator-initiated research within PBRNs, AHRQ is particularly interested in studies that explore (1) network strategies for assuring that new research evidence is translated into actual practice and that its impact is assessed; (2) innovative uses of information technology in primary care practices; (3) the feasibility of implementing electronic health records in primary care and assessing the impact on safety, quality, effectiveness and efficiency of care; (4) optimal methods of delivering preventive services in primary care settings; (5) methods for improving community-based detection and responses to emerging public health threats (including acts of bioterrorism); and (6) elucidation of primary care-based strategies for diminishing disparities in health care delivery and health outcomes for AHRQ priority populations. This includes delivery of health care in inner city and rural areas (including frontier areas); it also includes health care for: low income groups, minority groups, women; children; the elderly; and individuals with special health care needs, including individuals with disabilities and individuals who need chronic care or end-of-life health care. The funds are not intended to supplement ongoing research or to support large-scale undertakings or analyses of secondary data sources. It is expected, however, that results generated from these projects will serve as a basis for planning future, larger scale research.
