Background: 24 to 40% community-dwelling older persons (65+) fall annually, of which 21 to 45% fall recurrently. There is evidence for the use of a multifactorial fall prevention intervention. However, recent pragmatic trials, conclude that there is no effect on rate of falls. A possible explanation for these differences in results is the poor implementation of recommendations. This project aims to enhance the uptake and the effectiveness of a multifactorial fall prevention intervention in older community-dwelling persons in Flanders, Belgium. Methods: The BE-EMPOWERed project consists of three phases: 1) preparation, 2) development and 3) evaluation. The preparation phase is completed and it consisted of several sub studies: [1] a systematic review on implementation strategies, [2] a systematic review on influencing factors and [3] a qualitative study analyzing the context of the community setting. Both reviews are registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020187450, CRD42022295988). Searches were performed in five databases and mapped following PRISMA guidelines. The Mixed Method Appraisal Tool was used to assess methodological quality. The implementation strategies were described following the recommendations for specifying and reporting implementation strategies and the Taxonomy of Behavioral Change Methods. For the review on influencing factors, the determinants were categorized using ‘The Integrated Checklist of Determinants of practice’ (TICD checklist). The contextual analysis consisted of semi-structured interviews and focus group interviews with healthcare professionals, local policy makers and older persons. The TICD checklist was used to obtain more insights into the context. The interviews were verbatim transcribed, analyzed using the Qualitative Analysis Guide of Leuven and coded in NVivo. Results: In the systematic review on implementation strategies fifteen studies were included, describing more than 38 implementation strategies. The most frequently used strategies at the level of the older person were ...
