This scoping review aims to review contemporary published literature on Nursing Informatics education in undergraduate nursing education.
Nursing is the largest workforce in health care and nurses are increasingly required to work with digital information systems. The need for nurses to understand and embrace information technology is closely linked with the ability to function in the contemporary healthcare workplace. However, despite the early adoption of Nursing Informatics in Australia in the 1980 s, there remain barriers to Nursing Informatics engagement and proficiency, including poor computer literacy, limited professional development and a lack of undergraduate informatics education.
This scoping review will be developed in adherence with the JBI Manual for Evidence Synthesis: Scoping Reviews and the PRISMA-ScR Checklist.
To be included in this scoping review, papers need to include Nursing Informatics education for undergraduate nursing students in a Bachelor of Nursing program. Undergraduate nursing students are defined as individuals enrolled in a recognised nursing program leading to registration as a Nurse. To meet the requirements for registration as a Registered Nurse, in Australia, individuals are required to complete a Bachelor of Nursing program at a university (Australian Qualifications Framework Level 7) For the purpose of this scoping review, undergraduate nursing students are defined as those individuals undertaking a three year Bachelor of Nursing program at a university. Equivalent international definitions will be also used in the scoping review procedure. Sources of information will be included if they were published between 2015 and 2022 and describe curriculum recommendations (including barriers to implementing Nursing Informatics education). The purpose of the identified timespan is to reflect the rapidly evolving nature of health informatics and digital technologies. The requirement for curriculum recommendations is to reflect the purpose of the scoping review as the basis for a Delphi study, where Nursing Informatics and its integration into Bachelor of Nursing curricula will be explored and described in collaboration with domain experts.
Ethics approval has been obtained for this scoping review (Project ID: 2156) from the Flinders University's Human Research Ethics Committee and has been determined to be low risk.
本范围综述旨在回顾本科护理教育中护理信息学教育的当代已发表文献。
护理是医疗保健领域中最大的劳动力群体，护士越来越需要使用数字信息系统。护士理解和接受信息技术的能力与在当代医疗保健工作场所中发挥作用的能力密切相关。然而，尽管澳大利亚早在 20 世纪 80 年代就早期采用了护理信息学，但在护理信息学的参与和熟练程度方面仍然存在障碍，包括计算机素养差、专业发展有限以及缺乏本科信息学教育。
本范围综述将按照 JBI 证据综合手册：范围综述和 PRISMA-ScR 清单进行制定。
要包含在本范围综述中，论文需要包括本科护理学生在护理学学士课程中的护理信息学教育。本科护理学生被定义为注册护士的个人。在澳大利亚，要满足注册护士的要求，个人必须完成大学的护理学学士课程（澳大利亚资格框架 7 级）。就本范围综述而言，本科护理学生被定义为在大学攻读三年制护理学学士课程的个人。在范围综述过程中也将使用等效的国际定义。如果出版物发表于 2015 年至 2022 年之间，并描述课程建议（包括实施护理信息学教育的障碍），则将包含信息来源。确定的时间段的目的是反映健康信息学和数字技术的快速发展性质。课程建议的要求是反映范围综述的目的，即作为德尔菲研究的基础，与领域专家合作探索和描述护理信息学及其融入护理学学士课程的情况。
这项范围综述已从弗林德斯大学人类研究伦理委员会获得伦理批准（项目 ID：2156），并被确定为低风险。
