Description

Patients are the true experts on their own conditions, yet medical training often treats them as cases, not teachers. Clare Kennedy and co-authors set out a protocol for mapping how patients take part in teaching obstetrics and gynaecology. The specialty raises the stakes: its exams and topics are intimate, and involvement must be handled with care. The team wants to know what forms that involvement takes worldwide.

Their scoping review will search eleven databases for literature from 1960 onward. It follows an established framework for mapping broad topics. The goal is twofold: chart what exists, and expose the gaps. Challenges unique to this field, from consent to comfort, get special attention. The finished map should guide schools designing patient involvement that respects everyone in the room.
