Neurodegenerative diseases significantly impact individuals' nutritional status. Therefore, nutritional education plays a crucial role in enhancing the understanding of food and nutrition, preventing or minimizing malnutrition, promoting well-being, and empowering patients and caregivers. Educommunication is a methodology that utilizes communication as a pedagogical tool, with the potential to positively enhance the teaching-learning process. This study aims to identify and map educommunication strategies designed to educate caregivers and patients with neurodegenerative diseases about food and nutrition.
This scoping review followed the JBI Institute Reviewer's Manual. The search was conducted between June 2022 and March 2023 in databases including PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science.
Out of 189 studies identified, 29 met the eligibility criteria, and only 3 were suitable for inclusion in this review.
Studies using educommunication for food and nutrition education are scarce. Despite the limited number of studies included in this review, various educommunication strategies utilizing communication and information technologies were used. Educommunication strategies can facilitate knowledge acquisition in food and nutrition and change behaviors, resulting in health benefits for the participants. More studies on this subject are needed.
神经退行性疾病显著影响个体的营养状况。因此，营养教育在增强对食物和营养的理解、预防或最小化营养不良、促进健康以及赋予患者和照护者权力方面发挥着关键作用。Educommunication 是一种利用沟通作为教学工具的方法，有可能积极地增强教学过程。本研究旨在确定和绘制针对神经退行性疾病患者及其照护者进行食物和营养教育的 educommunication 策略。
本 scoping 综述遵循 JBI 研究所审查员手册进行。检索于 2022 年 6 月至 2023 年 3 月在包括 PubMed/MEDLINE、Embase、Scopus 和 Web of Science 在内的数据库中进行。
在确定的 189 项研究中，有 29 项符合纳入标准，仅有 3 项适合纳入本综述。
针对食物和营养教育使用 educommunication 的研究很少。尽管本综述纳入的研究数量有限，但使用了各种 educommunication 策略，利用了沟通和信息技术。Educommunication 策略可以促进食物和营养知识的获取并改变行为，从而使参与者受益于健康。需要更多关于这一主题的研究。
