OBJECTIVE
To identify how certification is defined, conceptualized, and discussed in the nursing literature.
BACKGROUND
Although it is hypothesized that credentialing is associated with better patient outcomes, the evidence is relatively limited. Some authors have suggested that the lack of consistency used to define certification in nursing literature may be one of the dominant obstacles in credentialing research.
METHODS
This scoping review was guided by Arksey and O'Malley's framework, and quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted.
RESULTS
The final data set contained a total of 36 articles, of which 14 articles provided a referenced definition of certification. Thematic analysis of the definitions yielded 8 dominant themes.
CONCLUSION
The lack of a common definition of certification in nursing must be addressed to advance research into the relationship between certification processes in nursing and healthcare outcomes.
目的
确定护理文献中如何定义、概念化和讨论认证。
背景
尽管据推测，认证与更好的患者预后相关，但证据相对有限。一些作者认为，护理文献中用于定义认证的不一致性可能是认证研究的主要障碍之一。
方法
本范围综述以阿克西和奥马利的框架为指导，并进行了定量和定性分析。
结果
最终数据集共包含36篇文章，其中14篇文章提供了认证的参考定义。对这些定义进行主题分析得出了8个主要主题。
结论
必须解决护理领域认证缺乏统一定义的问题，以推进对护理认证过程与医疗保健结果之间关系的研究。
