Abstract
Patient safety error reporting education is instrumental in promoting a culture of safety where health-care providers learn from errors and prevent such problems from being repeated. The proposed scoping review aims to establish a comprehensive understanding of how patient error reporting education has been implemented in undergraduate nursing education and present a direction for developing a future patient safety reporting program. The proposed scoping review protocol will be conducted using the Arksey and O'Malley methodological framework, following the Joanna Briggs Institute's methodology for scoping reviews. It will be reported according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses for Protocols (PRISMA-P), and a full scoping review will be reported according to PRISMA extension for Scoping Review (PRISMA-ScR). In the scoping review, studies published in any language and where the participants were undergraduate nursing students were included. In addition, the search period will not be limited, and the following databases will be used to search for relevant studies: MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Excerpta Medica databases (EMBASE). Moreover, this scoping review does not include unpublished studies or gray literature. Two reviewers will independently review titles and abstracts to evaluate inclusion and exclusion criteria, and primary literature will be selected. Two reviewers will independently assess the full text of selected primary literature in detail against the study criteria.
