METHODS: We will follow the Joanna Briggs Institute\'s scoping review methodology to ensure scientific rigour. We will collect literature of all languages with abstracts in English from CINAHL, Medline, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science and ProQuest database until 31 December 2023. Grey literature from Google Scholar and AgeWell websites will be included. Inclusion criteria encompass papers involving paid staff (Population), fully immersive VR training on dementia care (Concept) and LTC settings (Context). Literature referring only to non-paid caregivers, non-fully immersive VR or other chronic diseases will be excluded. Literature screening, data extraction and analysis will be conducted by two reviewers separately. We will present a narrative summary with a charting table on the main findings.
BACKGROUND: This work does not require ethics approval, given the public data availability for this scoping review. Through a comprehensive overview of the current evidence regarding impacts, barriers and facilitators on this topic, potential insights and practical recommendations will be generated to support the implementation of VR training to enhance staff competence in LTC settings. The findings will be presented in a journal article and shared with practitioners on the frontline.
方法:我们将遵循乔安娜·布里格斯研究所的范围审查方法,以确保科学严谨。我们将从CINAHL收集所有语言的文献以及英文摘要,Medline,Scopus,Embase,WebofScience和ProQuest数据库至2023年12月31日。将包括来自GoogleScholar和AgeWell网站的灰色文献。纳入标准包括涉及有薪工作人员(人口)的论文,关于痴呆症护理(概念)和LTC设置(上下文)的完全沉浸式VR培训。文献仅指无报酬护理人员,非完全沉浸式VR或其他慢性疾病将被排除。文学筛选,数据提取和分析将由两名评审员分别进行。我们将提供一个叙述性总结,并附有主要调查结果的图表。
背景:这项工作不需要道德批准,鉴于此范围审查的公共数据可用性。通过对当前有关影响的证据的全面概述,关于这个主题的障碍和促进者,将产生潜在的见解和实用建议,以支持VR培训的实施,以增强LTC设置中的员工能力。研究结果将在期刊文章中发表,并与前线的从业者分享。
