Abstract: Reporting guidelines are structured checklists for researchers to reference when reporting specific types of studies and preparing manuscripts. As research conducted in real-world settings to address practical issuees, implementation research has stringent requirements for the replicability of research and the transparency of reporting, making reporting guidelines for such research particularly critical. This paper systematically introduces the reporting guidelines in the field of implementation science, combs their classification systems and scopes of application, and focuses on explaining the core characteristics and functions of five categories of important reporting guidelines, including the Standards for Reporting Implementation Studies (StaRI), Reporting guidelines for implementation and operational research, the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR), the Framework for Reporting Adaptations and Modifications-Enhanced (FRAME), and recommendations for specifying and reporting implementation strategies. Meanwhile, combined with the PEDALs research paradigm in implementation science, this paper further clarifies the specific application paths of reporting guidelines and discusses directions for improvement, aiming to provide references for researchers to select appropriate reporting guidelines.
