| Resumo: | Background: The evaluation of health policies and actions allows us to measure the effectiveness of interventions and to suggest adjustments in order to achieve the desired outcome. Identifying indicators that reflect the different aspects of coping with overweight and obesity is a challenge for health evaluators, and shows the scope and relevance of the evaluative studies in the area. Aim:This article aims to present a protocol for a scoping review on the mapping of indicators used in primary care to monitor and evaluate actions for dealing with overweight and obesity. It is intended to answer the following questions: What are the indicators used to assess and monitor actions to deal with overweight and obesity in primary care? Are the indicators used able to assess and monitor the different components inherent in the recommended interventions to address overweight and obesity in primary care? Are the indicators used in line with the principles of primary care?Methods:The protocol described here was based on the recommendations of the PRISMA EXTENSION FOR SCOPING REVIEWS - PRISMA -Scr and the framework proposed by Arksey and O'Malley. Expected Results: It is hoped that the results of the scoping review can contribute to the improvement of health evaluation related to overweight and obesity in primary care. In order to disseminate the results and make it possible to reach the actors involved with overweight and obesity, the results of the scoping review will be published in a scientific magazine and presented at conferences and other relevant events. |
