Understanding digital navigators in health care: a scoping review protocol
This review will adhere to the JBI scoping review methodology. A comprehensive search will be conducted across the following databases: MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Embase, and Web of Science. Targeted Google searches and expert consultations will supplement the database searches. All search results will be assessed against the eligibility criteria, and relevant data will be extracted by 2 independent reviewers. The findings will be characterized using multiple frameworks and presented in the final scoping review report accompanied by a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) flow diagram.
