This review explores health net gain objectives in spatial planning, defining approaches for health protection and realization. It synthesizes existing knowledge to guide future policy and practice.
Area of Science:
- Public Health
- Urban Planning
- Environmental Health
Background:
- Established literature exists on environmental net-outcome objectives (e.g., biodiversity net gain) in spatial planning.
- A "health net gain" objective is emerging as a concept for health protection and realization.
- The scope and definition of "health net gain" in policy and practice require clarification.
Purpose of the Study:
- To conduct a scoping review of the knowledge base on net gain and no net loss (net-outcome) objectives and approaches for health.
- To identify applicable health net-outcome objectives and approaches within spatial planning and development policies and practices.
Main Methods:
- Systematic search of scientific and gray literature using multiple databases (PsycINFO, Embase, HMIC, MEDLINE, Scopus, ProQuest).
- Inclusion of all evidence types, without language or date restrictions, from diverse geographical contexts.
- Data extraction and synthesis by two independent reviewers, presented narratively and in tabular/diagrammatic formats.
Main Results:
- The review will map the existing body of knowledge on health net-outcome objectives in spatial planning.
- It will identify and define various approaches for implementing health net gain and no net loss.
- Findings will highlight current applications and potential gaps in the literature and practice.
Conclusions:
- This scoping review will provide a comprehensive overview of health net-outcome objectives in spatial planning.
- It aims to inform the development and implementation of effective health-focused spatial planning policies.
- The findings will contribute to advancing the concept and application of health net gain for improved public health outcomes.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...

Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...
