Integration between Primary Health Care and specialized mental health services: A scoping review protocol

Authors

Abstract

Introduction: Integrating Primary Health Care and specialized mental health services is crucial for ensuring equitable care. However, it remains a significant challenge within the field of public health due to numerous barriers to implementation. Objective: To map, within the scientific literature, current findings regarding the challenges and possibilities of integrating Primary Health Care with specialized mental health services. Methodology: This is a scoping review protocol based on the methodological framework proposed by the Joanna Briggs Institute and guided by the PRISMA-ScR checklist. The search strategy will be conducted across fourteen databases using Boolean operators. Two independent reviewers will carry out the screening process using the Rayyan reference management platform, with the support of the Research Pilot™ system for data collection and processing. These tools will facilitate article selection based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, aiming to address the following research question: “What are the challenges and possibilities of integrating Primary Health Care with specialized mental health services?” This protocol is registered with the Open Science Framework under registration number 10.17605/OSF.IO/ZUPY4.
