Abstract
Background: Despite the importance of fall prevention among older adults, limited research exists on interventions tailored to rapidly growing Hispanic/Latino populations in the United States. This protocol paper outlines the rationale and methods for conducting a scoping review to address this knowledge gap.
Methods and analysis: We will follow Arksey and O'Malley's framework and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR). This scoping review will be guided by the following research questions: What characterizes fall prevention interventions for Hispanic/Latino older adults? An iterative and systematic search of peer-reviewed publications from four databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, and CINAHL) will be extracted and uploaded to Covidence for screening.
Trial registration: This scoping review protocol has been registered with Open Science Framework and can be accessed at https://osf.io/zx3m8.
背景:尽管预防老年人跌倒很重要,但针对美国快速增长的西班牙裔/拉丁裔人口的干预措施研究有限。本方案文件概述了开展范围审查以解决这一知识差距的基本原理和方法。方法和分析:我们将遵循Arksey和O'Malley的框架和首选报告项目用于系统评价和范围评价的元分析扩展(PRISMA-ScR)。本次范围审查将以以下研究问题为指导:西班牙裔/拉丁裔老年人预防跌倒干预措施的特点是什么?将从四个数据库(PubMed、PsycINFO、Web of Science和CINAHL)中对同行评审出版物进行迭代和系统搜索,并将其提取并上传到Covidence进行筛选。试验注册:该范围审查方案已在开放科学框架注册,可通过https://osf.io/zx3m8访问。
