Digital and technological solutions (DTS) might have an impact on people's personal and professional lives. These types of solutions, according to studies, have the potential to revolutionize and improve the quality and long-term sustainability of healthcare activities, with nurses playing a significant role. Although DTS appears to be intimately linked to the future of nursing, technology must be utilized as an active rather than passive tool. Nonetheless, understanding DTS appears to be difficult, and a scoping study can provide a thorough overview of such a complicated topic. As a result, the scoping study on this topic will map all of the important aspects of DTS and synthesize studies on the nursing workforce, as well as analyze and clarify knowledge gaps and aid future research and development. This article presents the study protocol.
The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) scoping review methodology will be used for the proposed scoping review. It will include both quantitative and qualitative scientific research as well as grey literature on DTS in nursing. Only English-language works will be considered for inclusion. Two independent reviewers will take part in an iterative process of evaluating literature, choosing papers, and extracting data. Disagreements among reviewers will be resolved through debate until a consensus is reached or through consultation with the study team if necessary. Results will be presented using descriptive statistics, diagrammatic or tabular displayed information, and narrative summaries, as specified in the JBI guidelines.
This scoping review protocol explained why it is important to describe the literature on embracing DTS in the nursing field, how to approach the research process, and what the study's key implications will be. The protocol itself may be helpful to increase transparency in the research process, attract interested researchers to work with the group that developed the protocol and offer a practical methodological benchmark for researchers interested in performing scoping reviews by serving as an example of a scoping review protocol.
数字和技术解决方案（DTS）可能会对人们的个人生活和职业生活产生影响。根据研究，这类解决方案有可能彻底改变并提高医疗保健活动的质量和长期可持续性，护士在其中发挥着重要作用。尽管DTS似乎与护理的未来紧密相连，但技术必须被用作一种主动而非被动的工具。然而，理解DTS似乎很困难，而一项范围界定研究可以对这样一个复杂的主题提供全面的概述。因此，关于这个主题的范围界定研究将梳理DTS的所有重要方面，综合有关护理人员的研究，并分析和澄清知识差距，以助力未来的研究与发展。本文介绍了该研究方案。
拟议的范围界定综述将采用乔安娜·布里格斯研究所（JBI）的范围界定综述方法。它将包括关于护理领域DTS的定量和定性科学研究以及灰色文献。仅纳入英文作品。两名独立评审员将参与评估文献、选择论文和提取数据的迭代过程。评审员之间的分歧将通过辩论解决，直至达成共识，如有必要，也可与研究团队协商解决。结果将按照JBI指南的规定，采用描述性统计、图表或表格展示的信息以及叙述性总结的方式呈现。
本范围界定综述方案解释了为何描述护理领域采用DTS的文献很重要，如何开展研究过程，以及该研究的关键意义何在。该方案本身可能有助于提高研究过程的透明度，吸引感兴趣的研究人员与制定该方案的团队合作，并为有兴趣进行范围界定综述的研究人员提供一个实用的方法基准，作为范围界定综述方案的一个范例。
