De-implementation of low-value nursing practice: a scoping review protocol
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction Data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information has shown that as much as 30% of healthcare is considered low value, which can lead to poor patient outcomes due to adverse events of treatments or unwarranted secondary tests. Along with the popularity of implementation science over those years, increasing attention has been paid to de-implementation. While de-implementation has garnered increasing research across various healthcare domains, its application in the nursing field has received limited attention. The purpose of this review is to examine the progress of de-implementation research conducted in the nursing field to inform future study designs and research directions. Method We will conduct this research following the JBI scoping review methodology. Six databases (i.e., Medline (Ovid), Embase (Ovid), Web of Science, Scopus, PsychINFO (EBSCO), CINAHL(EBSCO), de-implementation focused or related journals (i.e., Implementation Science, Implementation Science Communications), and google scholar will be searched from their inception to December 1st, 2023 using keywords relate to nursing, de-implementation and low-value practice. We will include studies of all design types as long as they focus on de-implementation of low-value nursing practices, or low-value practices that require nurses’ participation within healthcare settings. Four reviewers will independently screen all titles, abstracts and full-text articles. Four reviewers will extract the data according to the appropriate checklists. Three reviewers will conduct data synthesis to explore study characteristics, de-implementation determinants and strategies, and study outcomes. Ethics and dissemination This scoping review will not include empirical data, and therefore requires no ethics approval. The results of the review will be disseminated in a peer-reviewed scientific journal and in a conference presentation.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
