Initial open coding of transcripts generated non-hierarchical codes with subsequent categorisation into themes. The Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) provided predetermined codes and facilitated a directed content analysis. Dominant TDF domains were identified and mapped to the Capability Opportunity Motivation-Behaviour (COM-B) model and Behavioural Change Wheel.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 13 HCPs participated in the study (n\u2009=\u200912 female; n\u2009=\u20094 doctors, n\u2009=\u20093 nurses, and n\u2009=\u20092 dietitians, speech &amp; language therapists and pharmacists respectively), with average interview length of 22\u00a0min (range 12\u201332\u00a0min). Eight TDF domains were found to be dominant: Memory Attention &amp; Decision Processes; Environment, Context and Resources; Knowledge; Social\/Professional Role and Identity; Goals; Beliefs about Consequences; Behavioural Regulation and Intentions.
