Mapping the current landscape of osteoarthritis patient educational resources: A scoping review of osteoarthritis guidebooks
The National Institute of Care and Excellence (NICE) guidelines (2015) recommend that patients receive accurate written and verbalinformation to enhance self-management. Currently, in Aotearoa New Zealand, there is no accepted osteoarthritis (OA) patient educational guidebook that fits this recommendation. This scoping review aimed to identify published OA patient-educational resources and synthesise the content contained within the resources, to inform the development of an Aotearoa New Zealand OA guidebook. A scoping review was conducted to identify national organisations with stand-alone OA patient-educational resources. We identified six guidebooks and 68 additional stand-alone resources. Relevant data were extracted and categorised in relation to six key NICE (2015) guideline components (first-line treatment, second-line treatment, third-line treatment, interprofessional team, self-management, and other). Additional data were grouped to construct one additional component (design features). Much of the identified content had a biomedical approach to the delivery of OA patient education and treatment, and the material lacked consideration of patient experience. The developers of future guidebooks or other patient-education resources should consider utilising a balance of lay and biomedical information that is socially and culturally relevant to enhance the translation of OA knowledge and may improve engagement with management.
