Self-compassion is recognized to have a positive effect upon a person's health. However, the influence of self-compassion on the health of midwives and nurses is less well understood. Midwives and nurses often work in highly demanding environments and situations, and are exposed to multiple work-based stressors simultaneously. Stressors such as a demanding clinical workload, high acuity, missing breaks, working more than their contracted hours, insufficient resources and staff, and poor patient outcomes can lead to midwives and nurses feeling physically exhausted and at increased risk of poor mental health. Self-compassion may act as a protective factor, assisting midwives and nurses to remain healthy.
This scoping review will provide an overview of the evidence base relating to the influence of self-compassion on the health of midwives and nurses.
The purpose of a scoping review is to comprehensively and systematically review the literature and identify key evidence or gaps. The search strategy for this protocol includes electronic databases such as Medline, Embase, Emcare, PsycInfo, Joanna Briggs Institute, Cochrane Library, and Scopus. Grey literature sources will be also searched, including ProQuest Central, internet search engines (Google Scholar), and manually searched key journals and reference lists of relevant articles. This scoping review will be undertaken in seven stages, guided by established scoping review methods and reporting guidelines: (1) identifying the research questions; (2) identifying relevant studies; (3) selecting the studies; (4) charting the data; (5) collating, summarizing, and reporting the results; (6) consulting; and (7) dissemination of knowledge. Data will be abstracted and presented using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews checklist and explanation by three independent researchers.
A preliminary search conducted in Medline (OVID) retrieved 194 results. Completion of the review is expected in December 2020 and will be published in early 2021.
To our knowledge, this will be the first scoping review of evidence-based literature relating to the influence of self-compassion on the health of midwives and nurses. It is anticipated that this analysis of the literature will contribute to understanding how midwives and nurses may use self-compassion in a proactive way to reduce work-based stressors such as burnout, stress, and compassion fatigue. Furthermore, the findings may inform educational needs with implications for clinical practice.

自我同情被认为对人的健康有积极影响。然而，自我同情对助产士和护士健康的影响尚鲜为人知。助产士和护士经常在要求极高的环境和情况下工作，同时面临多种基于工作的压力源。诸如繁重的临床工作量、高 acuity、错过休息时间、工作时间超过合同规定、资源和人员不足以及患者预后不佳等压力源，可能导致助产士和护士感到身体疲惫，心理健康状况不佳的风险增加。自我同情可能作为一种保护因素，帮助助产士和护士保持健康。
本综述将概述有关自我同情对助产士和护士健康影响的证据基础。
综述的目的是全面、系统地回顾文献并确定关键证据或差距。本方案的检索策略包括电子数据库，如 Medline、Embase、Emcare、PsycInfo、Joanna Briggs 研究所、Cochrane 图书馆和 Scopus。还将搜索灰色文献来源，包括 ProQuest Central、互联网搜索引擎（谷歌学术），并手动搜索相关文章的关键期刊和参考文献列表。本综述将分七个阶段进行，以既定的综述方法和报告指南为指导：(1) 确定研究问题；(2) 确定相关研究；(3) 选择研究；(4) 绘制数据；(5) 整理、总结和报告结果；(6) 咨询；(7) 知识传播。数据将由三名独立研究人员使用系统评价和 Meta 分析的首选报告项目扩展版的综述清单和解释进行提取和呈现。
在 Medline（OVID）中进行的初步检索获得了 194 条结果。预计综述将于 2020 年 12 月完成，并将于 2021 年初发表。
据我们所知，这将是第一篇关于自我同情对助产士和护士健康影响的循证文献综述。预计对文献的这一分析将有助于理解助产士和护士如何以积极主动的方式利用自我同情来减少诸如职业倦怠、压力和同情疲劳等基于工作的压力源。此外，研究结果可能为教育需求提供信息，对临床实践具有启示意义。
