Abstract

MANCHADO GARABITO, Rocío et al. Scoping review. Med. segur. trab. [online]. 2009, vol.55, n.216, pp.12-19. ISSN 1989-7790.

Due to the great progress that has occurred in recent years in the field of scientific research, the information is increasing not just in terms of amount but also in complexity. The scoping reviews allow to synthesize the existing evidence regarding a health issue, incorporating different study designs, interventions and measures of impact in order to generate new hypotheses, lines of research or to propose most appropriate working methods for future research. This is possible by applying criteria for assessing the quality of the documents found and the levels of scientific evidence.

Keywords : Methods; systematic review; scoping review.
