Abstract

Aims

To provide (1) an overview of core characteristics of scoping and mapping review methodologies and (2) to illustrate the differences and similarities of these methodologies using literature on nursing mobile workstations.

Design

Systematic review.

Methods

Systematic searches were conducted to identify (1) scoping and mapping review methodologies used in the field of nursing and (2) literature on nursing mobile workstations. For each systematic search, two reviewers independently screened all titles, abstracts, and full texts. We conducted narrative syntheses for both review questions. Publications on scoping and mapping review methodologies in the field of nursing were searched in MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, Scopus, and CINAHL (September 2022). Publications on nursing mobile workstations were searched in MEDLINE (PubMed), CINAHL, and Web of Science (April 2022).

Results

We identified six scoping and mapping review methodologies (aim 1): bibliometric analysis, evidence mapping, focused mapping review and synthesis, and scoping review. The methodologies aim to provide a graphical, tabular, or narrative overview without a formal critical assessment of the literature. We provide an overview of key variables that reflect the different focus of these methodologies. We also included 26 publications on nursing mobile workstations (aim 2). Nineteen different terms were used to describe the workstations. An overall definition of the nursing mobile workstation was not found.

Conclusion

Scoping and mapping methodologies are regularly applied in nursing research. Although there is overlap between the different methodologies, we found some unique characteristics. Despite the regular use of nursing mobile workstations, little is known about their impact in care processes and important features. Future studies on nursing mobile workstations could explore the impact of the workstations in the care process and the current functions of the workstations. A universal definition of the workstations is warranted.

Clinical Relevance

Most publications address aspects of practicability of nursing mobile workstations, but we found no universal definition. Little knowledge is available on the impact of the workstations in clinical practice.

比较不同的范围界定和绘图审查方法：使用护理移动工作站的实例。

目的：概述（1）范围界定和绘图综述方法的核心特征；（2）利用有关护理移动工作站的文献说明这些方法的异同：设计：系统综述：方法：进行系统检索，以确定 (1) 护理领域使用的范围界定和绘图审查方法，以及 (2) 有关护理移动工作站的文献。对于每项系统检索，均由两名审稿人独立筛选所有标题、摘要和全文。我们对这两个综述问题进行了叙述性综合。我们在 MEDLINE (PubMed)、Web of Science、Scopus 和 CINAHL（2022 年 9 月）中检索了护理领域关于范围界定和绘图综述方法的文献。在 MEDLINE（PubMed）、CINAHL 和 Web of Science（2022 年 4 月）中检索了有关护理移动工作站的文献：我们确定了六种范围界定和制图审查方法（目的 1）：文献计量分析、证据制图、重点制图审查和综合以及范围界定审查。这些方法旨在提供图表或叙述性概述，而不对文献进行正式的批判性评估。我们对反映这些方法不同侧重点的关键变量进行了概述。我们还收录了 26 篇关于护理移动工作站的文献（目的 2）。我们使用了 19 个不同的术语来描述工作站。我们没有找到护理移动工作站的整体定义：护理研究中经常使用范围界定和绘图方法。尽管不同方法之间存在重叠，但我们发现了一些独特的特征。尽管护理移动工作站经常被使用，但人们对其在护理流程中的影响和重要特点知之甚少。未来有关护理移动工作站的研究可以探讨工作站在护理流程中的影响以及工作站的现有功能。有必要对工作站进行统一定义：临床相关性：大多数出版物涉及护理移动工作站的实用性问题，但我们没有找到统一的定义。关于工作站在临床实践中的影响，目前所知甚少。
