Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aimed to map the available evidence on technosociality in the daily lives of primary care professionals to promote the health of people/families. This is a scoping review based on the Joanna Briggs Institute and Prisma-ScR. The PCC strategy (participants, concept and context) was used. The sample comprises 25 articles. The predominant language was English, the year, 2018, the strength of evidence, 5 and the quality of evidence, high and moderate. Technologies are part of the daily life of PHC professionals and include health control, curative and medication measures. They are sources of communication between professionals and professionals and users. For the use of technologies, it is essential that professionals are trained, using evidence-based practices to achieve the objectives in view of the needs of each one. The use of technologies to promote the health of people/families represents a technological innovation in Primary Health Care, with the possibility of impacting health conditions and promoting healthier life choices.

RESUMO Este estudo teve por objetivo mapear a evidência disponível sobre a tecnossocialidade no cotidiano de profissionais da atenção primária para a promoção da saúde de pessoas/famílias. Trata-se de uma scoping review fundamentada no Joanna Briggs Institute e no Prisma-ScR. Foi utilizada a estratégia PCC (participants, concept e context). A amostra compõe 25 artigos. O idioma predominante foi o inglês, o ano foi 2018, a força de evidência 5 e a qualidade de evidência alta e moderada. As tecnologias fazem parte do cotidiano dos profissionais da APS e abrangem medidas de controle da saúde, curativas e medicamentosas. São fontes de comunicação entre profissionais e profissionais e usuários. Para o uso de tecnologias, é imprescindível que os profissionais estejam capacitados, utilizando práticas baseadas em evidências para alcançar os objetivos perante as necessidades de cada um. O uso de tecnologias para a promoção da saúde de pessoas/ famílias representa uma inovação tecnológica na Atenção Primária à Saúde, com possibilidade de impacto nas condições de saúde e promoção de escolhas mais saudáveis de vida.

PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR): Checklist and Explanation

Adrian Aldcroft, Chantelle Garritty, Simon Lewin … (2018)

Scoping reviews, a type of knowledge synthesis, follow a systematic approach to map evidence on a topic and identify main concepts, theories, sources, and knowledge gaps. Although more scoping reviews are being done, their methodological and reporting quality need improvement. This document presents the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews) checklist and explanation. The checklist was developed by a 24-member expert panel and 2 research leads following published guidance from the EQUATOR (Enhancing the QUAlity and Transparency Of health Research) Network. The final checklist contains 20 essential reporting items and 2 optional items. The authors provide a rationale and an example of good reporting for each item. The intent of the PRISMA-ScR is to help readers (including researchers, publishers, commissioners, policymakers, health care providers, guideline developers, and patients or consumers) develop a greater understanding of relevant terminology, core concepts, and key items to report for scoping reviews.

Enhancing the scoping study methodology: a large, inter-professional team’s experience with Arksey and O’Malley’s framework

Helena ML Daudt, Catherine van Mossel, Samantha J Scott (2013)

Background Scoping studies are increasingly common for broadly searching the literature on a specific topic, yet researchers lack an agreed-upon definition of and framework for the methodology. In 2005, Arksey and O’Malley offered a methodological framework for conducting scoping studies. In their subsequent work, Levac et al. responded to Arksey and O’Malley’s call for advances to their framework. Our paper builds on this collective work to further enhance the methodology. Discussion This paper begins with a background on what constitutes a scoping study, followed by a discussion about four primary subjects: (1) the types of questions for which Arksey and O’Malley’s framework is most appropriate, (2) a contribution to the discussion aimed at enhancing the six steps of Arskey and O’Malley’s framework, (3) the strengths and challenges of our experience working with Arksey and O’Malley’s framework as a large, inter-professional team, and (4) lessons learned. Our goal in this paper is to add to the discussion encouraged by Arksey and O’Malley to further enhance this methodology. Summary Performing a scoping study using Arksey and O’Malley’s framework was a valuable process for our research team even if how it was useful was unexpected. Based on our experience, we recommend researchers be aware of their expectations for how Arksey and O’Malley’s framework might be useful in relation to their research question, and remain flexible to clarify concepts and to revise the research question as the team becomes familiar with the literature. Questions portraying comparisons such as between interventions, programs, or approaches seem to be the most suitable to scoping studies. We also suggest assessing the quality of studies and conducting a trial of the method before fully embarking on the charting process in order to ensure consistency. The benefits of engaging a large, inter-professional team such as ours throughout every stage of Arksey and O’Malley’s framework far exceed the challenges and we recommend researchers consider the value of such a team. The strengths include breadth and depth of knowledge each team member brings to the study and time efficiencies. In our experience, the most significant challenges presented to our team were those related to consensus and resource limitations. Effective communication is key to the success of a large group. We propose that by clarifying the framework, the purposes of scoping studies are attainable and the definition is enriched.
