There is increasing demand for business skills among health care professionals. The aim of this qualitative systematic review was to identify and summarize existing business and practice management (BPM) competencies for rehabilitation university graduates with the intention to inform curricula. The key electronic databases searched include ABI/INFORM Global, CINAHL, Education Source, Embase, and Medline. The initial search was performed in December 2018 and updated June 2021 with the following inclusion criteria: articles addressing BMP competencies in university-level rehabilitation programmes in developed countries. To ensure professional position statements and standards documents were captured, this grey literature was also included. Resources were extracted using EndNote and two reviewers independently screened and appraised the resources using the AACODS Checklist. Nine resources met the inclusion criteria and were incorporated in the qualitative synthesis. Quality-assessment scores ranged from 4 to 6 out of 6 on the AACODS Checklist. Several practice management competencies were consistent across multiple rehabilitation professions. However, business competencies were inconsistent with "marketing" and the "ability to develop a business plan" arising sporadically across Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy competency profiles, as well as individual audiology courses. There is insufficient evidence to suggest that a consensus exists for BPM competencies for rehabilitation university graduates in Canada. The aggregate list of 64 competencies compiled can be used to inform further research.
医疗保健专业人员对商业技能的需求日益增加。本定性系统评价的目的是识别并总结康复专业大学毕业生现有的商业与实践管理（BPM）能力，以便为课程设置提供参考。所检索的主要电子数据库包括ABI/INFORM Global、CINAHL、教育资源数据库、Embase和Medline。初始检索于2018年12月进行，并于2021年6月更新，纳入标准如下：涉及发达国家大学层面康复项目中BMP能力的文章。为确保获取专业立场声明和标准文件，还纳入了此类灰色文献。使用EndNote提取资源，两名评审员独立使用AACODS清单对资源进行筛选和评估。九份资源符合纳入标准，并被纳入定性综合分析。在AACODS清单上，质量评估分数在6分中为4至6分。多项康复专业的若干实践管理能力是一致的。然而，商业能力并不一致，“营销”和“制定商业计划的能力”在职业治疗和物理治疗能力概况以及个别听力学课程中偶尔出现。没有足够的证据表明加拿大康复专业大学毕业生的BPM能力存在共识。所编制的64项能力汇总清单可用于为进一步研究提供参考。
