145 Key elements of Community Engagement Studios within diverse fields of health service research: A systematic scoping review

Objectives/Goals: This scoping review examines common characteristics of Community Engagement Studios, defined as custom panels bringing together community partners with lived experience around a health issue to provide highly tailored feedback to a research team. The authors also identify health service fields that most commonly use community engagement studios. Methods/Study Population: This scoping review will follow procedures outlined in the Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Evidence Synthesis. Inclusion criteria are limited to peer reviewed manuscripts published between 2010 and 2024. Key word searches for terms related to Community Engagement Studios will be conducted within Embase, MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Web of Science. Experimental, quasi-experimental, observational studies, process and conceptual manuscripts published in English or Spanish meet inclusion criteria. Two reviewers will reach consensus about article inclusion. Data analysis will include content analysis and descriptive statistics. Results/Anticipated Results: The results for studies that meet inclusion criteria will be summarized through descriptive tables of study characteristics, the number of studies excluded at the full-text review stage, and reasons for the exclusion of any studies that met the initial inclusion criteria. The results will also include a summary of common elements in the design of CE studios, the health disciplines for which CE Studios are most frequently conducted, and the aspect/phase of research design for which CE Studios are most frequently requested. Discussion/Significance of Impact: To date, no work exists examining key elements of Community Engagement Studios and the fields within health services using this valuable research tool. This scoping review is a critical first step to develop guidelines, standards, and best practices around consistent procedures and characteristics to include in the design and conduct of CE Studios.
