Abstract | Background:Despite the importance of nutrition education for burn survivors, only limited work has been done to ascertain what is known about these education programs. Aim:To scope the existing literature to ascertain what is known about the nature and outcomes associated with nutrition education programs for burn survivors, their families and caregivers. Methods:Arksey and O’Malley scoping review approach were utilized with searches across peer-reviewed databases and gray literature sources. Results:Six studies were retained. Five studies focused on burn survivors and one focused on healthcare professionals. One study reported improved knowledge regarding postburn nutritional support following the implementation of the nutrition counseling program. Three studies reported on the inclusion of a nutrition education component in comprehensive postdischarge rehabilitation programs albeit no nutrition-specific outcomes were reported. Conclusion:The review affirms the limited literature, highlighting a need for more work to implement and evaluate outcomes of nutrition education programs for burn survivors. |
