The Measurement Instrument for Determinants of Innovations (MIDI) was developed to identify facilitators and barriers during implementation processes in healthcare. Thereby the implementation strategies can be better targeted to obtain successful implementation. MIDI is theory- and evidence based, and provides a generic description of 29 determinants with suggested questions that need to be adapted to the specific innovation and implementation context. This paper aims to describe how MIDI can be contextually adapted; using welfare technology implementation in municipal care services as context. Based on this process we suggest operationalization of specific determinants on item-level in the MIDI adapted to the welfare technology context (MIDI-WT).
