Scoping reviews help assess research literature when a full systematic review isn't feasible. This method, based on Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines, identifies research gaps and guides future studies.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Research Methodology
  • Evidence-Based Practice

Background:

  • The increasing volume of primary research necessitates effective literature appraisal methods.
  • Evidence-based practice in healthcare relies heavily on synthesized research findings.
  • Scoping reviews are an underutilized but valuable tool for initial literature assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and explain the methodology of scoping reviews.
  • To differentiate scoping reviews from systematic reviews.
  • To outline the key indications and benefits of conducting scoping reviews.

Main Methods:

  • Presents a guide to conducting scoping reviews.
  • Based on the established methodology from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI).
  • Details the process of taking stock of research literature.

Main Results:

  • Scoping reviews are useful for defining concepts, assessing literature scope, and identifying research gaps.
  • They are appropriate for complex or heterogeneous topics where systematic reviews may not be suitable.
  • Scoping reviews can inform the design of future systematic reviews and guide future research.

Conclusions:

  • Scoping reviews are essential for understanding the breadth and depth of existing research.
  • They provide a framework for synthesizing preliminary evidence and identifying areas for further investigation.
  • Adherence to structured methodologies like the JBI approach ensures rigor in scoping review conduct.
