Abstract

A key component to the continued development of any profession is a strong research culture. For paramedicine, a research culture that acknowledges the uniqueness of the out-of-hospital setting allows clinical practice to develop. Recent international publications investigating paramedicine research outputs demonstrated that Ireland was not strongly represented in the production of paramedicine-based research. The aim of this scoping review was to identify and evaluate the quantity and quality of the research published to date in the Irish out-of-hospital literature, and to identify research gaps that may need to be addressed. A scoping review was conducted using the Joanna Briggs Institute guidance. All studies that reported on out-of-hospital care in the Republic of Ireland were included. MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and grey literature sources were searched from 2000 until 2022 for relevant articles in March 2023. Key authors were contacted to identify missing articles and data were extracted to present the final publication yield. Scientific quality was assessed using Clarivate Average Journal Impact Factor Percentiles. Over 3200 research outputs were identified from the databases with a final yield of 294 research outputs included in this review. Research outputs were identified for most years included in the review period, with outputs published in a large range of journals. Research heavily focused on areas linked to the Clinical Practice Guidelines, and predominantly used quantitative data collection methods. Most authors identified in this review were named on only one output. However, diversification in research topics and methodologies, a concerted effort to ensure practitioners are leading research and support to ensure that conference presentations are continued to peer-reviewed publication would strengthen this resolve.
2000 年至 2022 年爱尔兰院外研究范围审查
任何专业的持续发展都离不开强大的研究文化。对于辅助医疗而言,承认院外环境独特性的研究文化有助于临床实践的发展。最近发表的调查辅助医疗研究成果的国际出版物表明,爱尔兰在辅助医疗研究成果方面的代表性不强。此次范围界定审查旨在确定和评估迄今为止在爱尔兰院外文献中发表的研究的数量和质量,并找出可能需要解决的研究缺口。我们采用乔安娜-布里格斯研究所(Joanna Briggs Institute)的指南进行了范围界定审查。所有报道爱尔兰共和国院外护理的研究均被纳入其中。检索了 2000 年至 2022 年的 MEDLINE、CINAHL、EMBASE、Cochrane 图书馆和灰色文献来源,以查找 2023 年 3 月的相关文章。联系主要作者以确定缺失的文章,并提取数据以提供最终的发表率。科学质量采用 Clarivate 平均期刊影响因子百分位数进行评估。从数据库中确定了 3200 多项研究成果,最终有 294 项研究成果被纳入本综述。在审查期内的大多数年份都有研究成果,这些成果发表在多种期刊上。研究主要集中在与《临床实践指南》相关的领域,并主要使用定量数据收集方法。本次评审中确定的大多数作者只在一项成果上署名。然而,研究课题和方法的多样化、确保从业人员领导研究的共同努力以及为确保会议发言继续在同行评审出版物上发表而提供的支持,都将加强这种决心。
