The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of a multifaceted knowledge translation intervention using PTs as knowledge brokers KBs to facilitate the use in clinical practice of four evidence-based measurement tools designed to evaluate and understand motor function in children with cerebral palsy CP . The KB model evaluated in this study was designed to overcome many of the barriers to research transfer identified in the literature. Methods A mixed methods before-after study design was used to evaluate the impact of a six-month KB intervention by 25 KBs on 122 practicing PTs self-reported knowledge and use of the measurement tools in 28 children s rehabilitation organizations in two regions of Canada. The model was that of PT KBs situated in clinical sites supported by a network of KBs and the research team through a broker to the KBs. Modest financial remuneration to the organizations for the KB time two hours week for six months ongoing resource materials and personal and intranet support was provided to the KBs. Survey data were collected by questionnaire prior to immediately following the intervention six months and at 12 and 18 months. A mixed effects multinomial logistic regression was used to examine the impact of the intervention over time and by region.
