This scoping review identifies tools for assessing knowledge of risk factors in patients with cardiovascular disease, indicating an important focus on prevention.
Objective: To identify questionnaires, scales, and instruments used to assess the knowledge of risk factors in patients with cardiovascular disease. Method: This scoping review will utilize the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Collaboration methodology for scoping reviews, adhering to the guidelines outlined in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). This protocol was registered on the Open Science Framework (OSF): (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/YVN8F). Databases and scientific information portals will be searched for relevant articles. Data will be imported into EndNote and screened for duplicates. Remaining records will then be imported into Rayyan, and two review authors will evaluate the selection, with a third review author mediating any disagreement. Findings will be presented in the form of tables, charts, or figures.
