Measurement-based care educational programmes for clinical trainees in mental healthcare: a scoping review protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Measurement-based care (MBC) represents the approach of regularly using symptom rating scales to guide patient care decisions in mental healthcare. MBC is an effective, feasible and acceptable approach to enhance clinical outcomes in various disciplines, including medicine, psychology, social work and psychotherapy. Yet, it is infrequently used by clinicians, potentially due to limited education for care providers. The objective of this scoping review is to survey the characteristics of MBC educational programmes for undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate clinical trainees in mental healthcare.

Methods and analysis

Using database-tailored search strategies, we plan on searching Medline, PsycINFO, Embase, CINAHL and Cochrane Central for relevant studies. Therea
