Abstract

The objective of this scoping review is to map how Intervention Mapping (IM) has been used by studies that apply this approach to develop health promotion interventions for people with chronic conditions. Chronic conditions present a growing burden of disease across the world with chronic pain being one of the most common. IM is a behavioural change intervention development approach that can be used to create programmes or innovations for health promotion, but the process is often complex and time consuming. This review will consider all studies that use IM to develop a health promotion intervention for adults (age ≥18) with a chronic condition in any setting or location. To be included, the study must utilise at least one stage from IM. This scoping review will follow the JBI methodology for scoping reviews, starting with an initial limited search of MEDLINE and CINAHL to refine the search strategy, then a search across all selected databases and trial registries, and finally a search of the reference lists of the included studies. Eight databases seven trial registries, and three grey literature sources will be systematically searched for all studies that achieve the eligibility criteria. An initial screening of titles and abstracts will be conducted by two independent reviewers, with a third reviewer resolving any disputes. Then full text screening of selected studies will be assessed through the same process. Data will be extracted using a predefined, yet flexible tool developed by the authors. The data will then be presented in tables, graphs and diagrams with a descriptive summary and discussion of the results.
