Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 April 2025
Abstract
Objectives/Goals: To describe the evaluation processes of screening services implemented in community pharmacies. Methods/Study Population: A systematic literature review will be conducted from the last 20 years in Ovid Medline, APA PsycINFO, Clinialtrials.gov, and International Pharmaceutical Abstracts. Inclusion criteria are written in English, describes a clinical or health-related screening service in a community pharmacy, and evaluation of said health screening service is included. Approximately 950 articles have been initially identified. Two authors will screen each title, abstract, and full text for inclusion. Subsequent data extraction will occur including elements of 1) evaluation framework, 2) evaluation outcomes assessed, and 3) evaluation results. All elements of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses checklist will be followed. Quality of articles will be assessed using the MMAT. Results/Anticipated Results: Results are expected to show limited evaluation of screening services in pharmacies. Clinical conditions included in the screening services are expected to vary greatly. High-quality evaluations will be noted as templates for future evaluation of screening services in community pharmacies. Discussion/Significance of Impact: This systematic review will describe the current literature on evaluation of health screening services in community pharmacies. This will give readers an overview of how evaluations are currently being carried out in this setting, as well as provide them with templates of high-quality evaluations for future evaluation of screening services.
