The World Health Organization (WHO) advocates for the strengthening of education and training in infection prevention and control (IPC) in higher educational institutions (HEIs). This is fundamental to ensure health science students are confident and competent in clinical practice.
Explore the preparedness of undergraduate health science students for IPC practice.
The PubMed, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, EMBASE, ProQuest, Scopus, Web of Science, ClinicalKey, and Google Scholar databases and grey literature will be searched for relevant articles.
Quantitative, and mixed methods studies on teaching and learning, technological methods, strengths and limitations, and challenges of IPC practice in HEI undergraduate curricula.
Undergraduate health science students including medical, nursing, pharmacy, dental, physiotherapy, radiology, medical imaging, and paramedicine.
Studies published anywhere in the world, in English, and from 2010 to 2023.
Preparedness, health science students, infection prevention and control, technology, higher education institutions.
The data extracted will be recorded on a data extraction form.
This will be conducted according to the criteria outlined in the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions.
No ethical approval was required for this protocol. Interim findings will be presented at relevant local and international conferences and a manuscript will be published in a peer reviewed journal.
This systematic review will provide a baseline for recommendations for developing innovative ways to improve IPC teaching and learning in HEI.
世界卫生组织（WHO）倡导加强高等教育机构（HEIs）中感染预防与控制（IPC）的教育与培训。这对于确保健康科学专业学生在临床实践中充满信心并具备能力至关重要。
探索健康科学专业本科学生对IPC实践的准备情况。
将检索PubMed、护理及相关健康文献累积索引、EMBASE、ProQuest、Scopus、科学引文索引、ClinicalKey和谷歌学术数据库以及灰色文献，以查找相关文章。
关于高等教育机构本科课程中IPC实践的教学与学习、技术方法、优势与局限以及挑战的定量和混合方法研究。
健康科学专业本科学生，包括医学、护理、药学、牙科、物理治疗、放射学、医学影像和护理急救专业的学生。
2010年至2023年在世界任何地方以英文发表的研究。
准备情况、健康科学专业学生、感染预防与控制、技术、高等教育机构。
提取的数据将记录在数据提取表上。
将根据《Cochrane干预系统评价手册》中概述的标准进行。
本方案无需伦理批准。中期研究结果将在相关的地方和国际会议上展示，并将在同行评审期刊上发表一篇手稿。
本系统评价将为制定创新方法以改善高等教育机构中IPC教学与学习的建议提供基线。
