These developments have led to questions about whether IS theories and frameworks might be of value to population health researchers and decision makers. The purpose of this research was to conduct a critical interpretive synthesis to explore, if, and how, key IS theories and frameworks might inform population health interventions aimed at reducing the burden of illness across populations %K implementation science %K population health %K theory %K framework %K critical review %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6070464/
