Family care for elderly people in palliative care: a scope review protocol

Authors

Abstract

Introduction: Population aging is a global demographic phenomenon; in Brazil, the development of palliative care is recent. In this context, the family constitutes the structuring core of care. Objective: To map elements for an analysis of the concept of family care in the context of supporting older adults in palliative care. Methodology: A scoping review protocol was developed according to the JBI guidelines and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses – Scoping Review. The theory development strategies proposed by Walker and Avant will be adopted, which recommend three strategies: concept analysis, synthesis of the scientific literature, and theory derivation. The protocol is registered with the Open Science Framework platform. The review followed the Population, Concept, and Context structure. The search will be conducted in five international databases and one gray literature database, with no restrictions on language, period, or country of study, using keywords and controlled descriptors from MeSH and DeCS. Two independent reviewers will conduct the screening and data extraction steps, using Rayyan software. With these elements, the articles will be ordered according to declared eligibility criteria, to answer the guiding question: What elements can contribute to defining the concept of "family care" in the support of elderly people in palliative care?
