| Popis: | Introduction The objective of this scoping review is to identify evidence of the impact of hospital managers in top management (c-suite) on hospital performance. Managers generally have various effects on organisational objectives of their organisations. In recent years, the healthcare sector has experienced alterations in hospital governance structures, together with the emergence of new c-suite positions, aligning more closely with those found in private organisations. Their impact on hospital performance (ie, quality of care) is not well known. This scoping review seeks to identify all the available evidence of their impact on the organisational objectives. This scoping review will include primary studies, reviews and commentaries that describe the impact of top management team members on organisational outcomes in a hospital setting.Methods and analysis The search strategy aims to locate both published and unpublished documents (ie, grey literature) using a three-step search strategy. An exploratory search of Medline and Google Scholar identified keywords and Medical Subject Headings terms. A second search of Medline (PubMed), Web of Science Core Collection, ScienceDirect, Business Source Premier (EBScoHost), JSTOR, BASE, Lens.org and the Google Search Engine will be performed. The scope of the search will cover 1990-present time using English search terms. Manual searching by two reviewers will be added to the search strategy. The identified documents will be independently screened, selected by two researchers and extracted by one researcher. The data are then presented in tables and graphics coupled with a descriptive summary.Ethics and dissemination As this study neither involves human participants nor unpublished secondary data, an ethics approval is not required. Findings will be disseminated through professional networks, conference presentations and publication in a scientific journal.Trial registration number The protocol was registered on the Open Science Framework (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/EBKUP). |
