Safe Surgical Practices For The Construction Of Elimination Stomas To Prevent And Reduce Postoperative Complications: A Scoping Review Protocol
Keywords:
Ostomy, Postoperative Complications, Practice Guideline, Primary Prevention, Surgical Procedures, OperativeAbstract
Objective: To identify the best practices for the safe construction of stomas in order to prevent and minimize postoperative complications, and secondarily to highlight gaps for future research. Introduction: The creation of stomas is used in the management of the gastrointestinal tract, but postoperative complications are common due to the techniques employed. Recent advances have allowed for the identification of ideal practices. Inclusion Criteria: These will include guidelines, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, protocols, and recommendations for professionals in the creation of stomas, excluding outdated, irrelevant, or qualitative sources. Methods: This scoping review will be conducted following the JBI methodology for scoping reviews (2024) and will adhere to the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. The main databases to be searched include PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library, BVS, LILACS, Trip Medical Database, Epistemonikos, and CINAHL. Grey literature sources will also be included. The search will consider published and unpublished studies from 2015 onward, in any language. Titles and abstracts will be screened in Rayyan by two independent reviewers, followed by full-text reading of eligible studies. Data will be extracted using standardized forms in Excel and presented in PRISMA-ScR diagrams, tables, and descriptive narratives. Methodological deviations will be reported when applicable.
