Behavioral Interventions on Surgeons' Preoperative Decision-Making: A Scoping Review and Critical Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Consensus is lacking regarding the optimal strategy to influence surgeons' behaviors to reduce low-value surgical care. Comprehensively describing the existing body of literature that seeks to intervene on surgeons' preoperative decision-making may aid in structuring future behavior change strategies.

Methods

We performed a scoping review using four databases (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, Embase, Web of Science, and Cumulated Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature) for articles that tested the effect of behavioral-based interventions on any aspect of surgeons' decision-making in the preoperative setting. Abstracted data were characterized by summative descriptions and analyzed using the Tailored Implementation for Chronic Disea
