To review and summarise interprofessional breastfeeding curricula-educational initiatives involving multiple health professions-that have been proposed for undergraduate or pre-registration health students. This review will help guide the development of future Interprofessional Education (IPE) curricula for undergraduate health students, specifically in the area of breastfeeding care.
Breastfeeding care and support from healthcare professionals are vital for breastfeeding success. To ensure mothers receive high-quality, consistent care, healthcare professionals must receive comprehensive, evidence-based breastfeeding education. However, there is limited understanding of how breastfeeding curricula are delivered across different disciplines in undergraduate health programs, particularly in the context of IPE.
Primary research designs, including quantitative, qualitative and mixed-method studies and evidence syntheses of primary research including systematic and scoping reviews that meet the inclusion criteria will be considered. Position papers and policy documents will also be considered for inclusion in this scoping review.
Medline (Ovid), CINAHL (EBSCO), ERIC (EBSCO), Social Sciences, and Cochrane Databases of Systematic Reviews will be searched with English language and date restrictions (2005-current). Titles and abstracts and full-text articles will be independently screened by two reviewers. The reference lists of the included studies will be searched. A grey literature search will be undertaken on Google scholar, BASE and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) website in October 2024. Studies will be screened in Covidence by two independent reviewers. All reviewers will agree on the included studies. Data will be extracted and presented graphically using figures and tables. Narrative summary text will accompany the tables and figures.
回顾并总结针对本科或预注册医学生提出的跨专业母乳喂养课程——涉及多个健康专业的教育举措。本综述将有助于指导未来针对本科医学生的跨专业教育（IPE）课程的开发，特别是在母乳喂养护理领域。
医疗保健专业人员提供的母乳喂养护理和支持对母乳喂养的成功至关重要。为确保母亲获得高质量、一致的护理，医疗保健专业人员必须接受全面、基于证据的母乳喂养教育。然而，对于本科健康课程中不同学科如何开展母乳喂养课程，尤其是在跨专业教育的背景下，人们的了解有限。
将考虑主要研究设计，包括定量、定性和混合方法研究，以及符合纳入标准的主要研究的证据综合，包括系统评价和范围综述。立场文件和政策文件也将被考虑纳入本范围综述。
将搜索Medline（Ovid）、CINAHL（EBSCO）、ERIC（EBSCO）、社会科学数据库和Cochrane系统评价数据库，设置英语语言和日期限制（2005年至今）。标题、摘要和全文文章将由两名评审员独立筛选。将搜索纳入研究的参考文献列表。将于2024年10月在谷歌学术、BASE和国家卫生与保健卓越研究所（NICE）网站上进行灰色文献搜索。研究将由两名独立评审员在Covidence中进行筛选。所有评审员将对纳入的研究达成一致。将提取数据，并使用图表以图形方式呈现。表格和图表将附带叙述性总结文本。
