Abstract

Deprescribing is complex because it involves patients' health, values, and preferences. The World Health Organization and Canadian Medication Appropriateness and Deprescribing Network have recommended that deprescribing be integrated into health curricula, prompting the need for further understanding about deprescribing education. The purpose of this research is to describe the literature regarding deprescribing education provided to healthcare professionals. We conducted a scoping review using the five-step model by Arksey and O'Malley with revisions from Levac et al. The databases searched included Medline, Scopus, Embase and ERIC. Papers were included if they were written in English and contained an educational intervention about deprescribing tailored toward physicians, pharmacists or nurses. White papers and conference abstracts were included. A total of 4853 abstracts were eligible for screening and 46 papers were included (25 full texts, 15 conference abstracts and 6 white papers). Thirty-three papers utilized group education for their intervention and of these, 20 involved interactive portions. Medicine was the most targeted profession, included in 29 papers. The most common outcomes were the number of medications deprescribed and an increase in learner knowledge and self-efficacy regarding deprescribing using self-assessment surveys or post-educational examinations. We found that there is evidence that educational interventions can increase participant knowledge regarding deprescribing and improve self-efficacy. To expand the education of deprescribing, future interventions should engage and utilize a variety of health professions and interventions could include real patients. Further research is required to determine the retention and application of deprescribing knowledge gained from single educational interventions.
