Protocol for a scoping review examining the application of large language models in healthcare education and public health learning spaces

The review is guided by the JBI methodology for scoping reviews complemented by updates from Levac et al. Databases including PubMed, Scopus, IEEE Xplore, and Web of Science will be searched for peer-reviewed articles, conference proceedings, and grey literature published in English and French from 2015 to 2025. Data extraction will include information on study characteristics, LLM models, prompt engineering strategies, auditing methodologies, and user feedback mechanisms. We will synthesize to identify trends, gaps, and best practices in leveraging LLMs to generate baseline data for auditing prompts that optimize AI learning and education needs in the healthcare and public health sector.

Abstract

The review is guided by the JBI methodology for scoping reviews complemented by updates from Levac et al. Databases including PubMed, Scopus, IEEE Xplore, and Web of Science will be searched for peer-reviewed articles, conference proceedings, and grey literature published in English and French from 2015 to 2025. Data extraction will include information on study characteristics, LLM models, prompt engineering strategies, auditing methodologies, and user feedback mechanisms. We will synthesize to identify trends, gaps, and best practices in leveraging LLMs to generate baseline data for auditing prompts that optimize AI learning and education needs in the healthcare and public health sector.
