Abstract
Objective: To outline the steps of a scoping review protocol aimed at mapping the existing literature on fixation techniques employed by nursing staff in patients using tubular devices, such as vascular catheters, indwelling urinary catheters, nasoenteric tubes, and drains. Methods: This is a scoping review protocol conducted in accordance with JBI guidelines and reported following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses – Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The search will be carried out in the BVS, PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases, as well as gray literature sources including the Open Access Theses and Dissertations and the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations. Searches will be conducted through September 2024 with no language restrictions. Study selection will follow predefined inclusion criteria, and data extraction will be performed independently by two review authors. Results will be synthesized using structured tables and a clear narrative summary.
