Abstract

Introduction

Nutritional care has long been recognized as a vital component of nursing. However, nutrition instruction faces many challenges in nursing education, and few studies have investigated this topic.

Aim

The study's aim was to investigate how nutrition education has been conducted in undergraduate nursing education.

Method

A scoping review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) and Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) recommendations. The search was conducted in April 2023, with an updated search in February 2024. We searched in the following EBSCO databases: Academic Search Elite, CINAHL, Education Source and ERIC. We also searched in PubMed and Embase via Ovid and Scopus. A total of 3634 articles were identified from the initial search. Duplicates were removed and articles were then screened by title, abstract and full text by the research team to ensure eligibility. We identified 30 articles for retrieval. Nine articles were ultimately included.

Results

The results were organized into five thematic groups: (a) learning through involving patients, (b) learning contextualized in clinical practice, (c) learning through an active teaching method on campus, (d) learning through interdisciplinary collaboration and (e) combining education on campus and learning in clinical placement.

Conclusion

The findings from the scoping review emphasized that nutrition education activities should utilize active, experiential and social learning strategies. Moreover, findings suggest the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration when conducting nutrition education. Nursing education must give due attention to nutrition education, both on campus and in clinical placement, to adequately prepare students for nutritional care in professional practice. Nutrition instruction in nursing education could benefit from addressing nutritional care at both an individual and a systemic level, to support nursing students to cope with various challenges related to nutritional care in the patient setting.

护理专业学生的营养教育：范围审查

引言长期以来，营养护理一直被认为是护理工作的重要组成部分。本研究的目的是调查本科护理教育中如何开展营养教育。方法根据范围界定综述的首选报告项目（PRISMA-ScR）和乔安娜-布里格斯研究所（JBI）的建议进行范围界定综述。检索于 2023 年 4 月进行，并于 2024 年 2 月进行了更新。我们在以下 EBSCO 数据库中进行了检索：Academic Search Elite、CINAHL、Education Source 和 ERIC。我们还通过 Ovid 和 Scopus 在 PubMed 和 Embase 中进行了检索。初步检索共发现 3634 篇文章。研究小组删除了重复的文章，然后根据标题、摘要和全文对文章进行筛选，以确保符合条件。我们确定了 30 篇检索文章。结果研究结果分为五个专题组：(a) 让患者参与的学习，(b) 结合临床实践的学习，(c) 通过校园积极教学方法的学习，(d) 通过跨学科合作的学习，(e) 将校园教育与临床实习学习相结合。此外，研究结果表明，在开展营养教育时，跨学科合作非常重要。护理教育必须充分重视校园和临床实习中的营养教育，使学生为专业实践中的营养护理做好充分准备。护理教育中的营养教学可从个体和系统两个层面解决营养护理问题，以支持护理专业学生应对患者环境中与营养护理相关的各种挑战。
