To identify current evidence on health care managers' competence in knowledge management.
Although successful knowledge management improves the quality of care and performance of health care organisations, there is limited evidence on health care managers' competence in knowledge management EVALUATION: A scoping review was conducted by including original published and unpublished studies (qualitative, quantitative, and experimental) and review designs in English, Finnish, or Swedish. The studies were retrieved from six databases (CINAHL, ProQuest, PubMed, Scopus, Mednar, and Finnish database Medic) in November 2020 and then complemented in January 2022. Narrative synthesis was used to synthesize data.
A total of 21 articles was included in the review. The main themes of managers' competence in knowledge management presented in these were system management, professional development, and leadership behaviour and attitude. No valid and reliable instruments were described in the included studies.
At present, there is a limited understanding of health care managers' competence in knowledge management. A comprehensive understanding of this topic can provide a direction for future research.
The results can be utilized in the assessment and development of managers' competence in knowledge management, as well as the formulation of education and in-service training for health care managers.
确定当前关于医疗保健管理人员在知识管理方面能力的证据。
尽管成功的知识管理可以提高医疗保健质量和组织绩效，但关于医疗保健管理人员在知识管理方面能力的证据有限。
采用范围综述方法，纳入了英语、芬兰语或瑞典语的原始发表和未发表的研究（定性、定量和实验研究）和综述设计。研究于 2020 年 11 月从六个数据库（CINAHL、ProQuest、PubMed、Scopus、Mednar 和芬兰数据库 Medic）中检索，并于 2022 年 1 月进行了补充。采用叙述性综合方法对数据进行综合。
综述共纳入 21 篇文章。这些文章中呈现的管理人员在知识管理方面能力的主要主题包括系统管理、专业发展以及领导行为和态度。纳入的研究中没有描述有效的和可靠的工具。
目前，对于医疗保健管理人员在知识管理方面的能力理解有限。对这一主题的全面理解可为未来的研究提供方向。
研究结果可用于评估和发展管理人员在知识管理方面的能力，以及为医疗保健管理人员制定教育和在职培训。
