Abstract

Introduction: Childhood immunisation is crucial for protecting children from serious diseases. This scoping review aims to map out previous research on factors influencing intention on childhood vaccination among pregnant women. Methods: This protocol outlines a scoping review using the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology framework. The inclusion criteria for this scoping review will center on studies that examine pregnant women and the factors influencing their vaccination decisions, with a particular emphasis on primary research utilizing experimental methods. Exclusion criteria will involve non-full-text articles and those not published in English. The advanced search techniques will utilize keywords across MEDLINE (PubMed), Elsevier (Scopus), and WoS. Screening will entail removing duplicates and assessing titles and abstracts. Discussion: Relevant articles will then undergo a thorough full-text examination to determine eligibility. Data from the articles will be put into a table. After that, we'll analyze it and show the results in both the table and graphs. Trial Registration: 10.17605/OSF.IO/E5MCA
