Description

Family health is defined as a state of dynamic well-being and relative change, which includes biological, psychological, spiritual, sociological and cultural factors of the constituent members as well as aspects of the functioning of the family unit. This means that family health will depend on the interaction between personal factors, specific family group factors and sociological factors. Aim: To map the available evidence on the health of families with under-age children attended in the context of primary health care, identifying the indicators used in characterising their health. This protocol follows the Joanna Brigs Institute (JBI) methodology. The PCC strategy was adopted for the construction of the research guiding question: P (Population) Families with under-age children; C (Concept) Family’s Health; C (Context) Primary Health Care. The sample will consist of studies that address family health and its indicators. A search will be conducted in electronic databases and grey literature. Conclusions: the previous research found studies that support the possibility of Scoping Review.
