Objective:
The objective of this scoping review is to identify and describe the extent and type of the available evidence on simulation-based education for nurse and midwife advanced practitioner education.
Introduction:
Simulation-based education is widely adopted in undergraduate nurse and midwife education, but the extent of the use, format, and evidence for simulation-based education in nurse and midwife advanced practitioner education is under explored.
Inclusion criteria:
Studies will be included where the population is registered nurses or midwives enrolled in education programs leading to an award of, or eligibility to register as a nurse or midwife advanced practitioner. Participants will have been exposed to simulation-based education as a teaching methodology. Simulation-based education may take place in practice and/or in an academic setting in any geographical location.
Methods:
An initial limited search was conducted in Embase and CINAHL to identify articles relevant to the topic. Text words contained within the titles and abstracts of articles, as well as index terms describing the relevant articles, were used in the development of the full search strategy. The keywords and index terms identified in the Embase search strategy will be adapted across other nursing, midwifery, and educational databases, including MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and ERIC. Studies published in any language, spanning any date range will be included. Records retrieved will be reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Two reviewers will independently assess the records for inclusion against the defined criteria and extract data using an adapted JBI data extraction form. The data will be charted using narrative summary text, tables, and figures.
Aims:To identify and synthesize the available evidence of youths with asthma and their experience of self-management education.Design: Systematic literature review of qualitative studies with meta-synthesis of findings.
Data sources:We searched five databases, CINAHL Complete, Embase, MEDLINE (EBSCO) PsycINFO, ASSIA and the Global Index Medicus (formerly the WHOLIS).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
