Objective: The goal of this review is to identify and map health professionals’ attitudes and behaviors that promote
humanization of the care provided to adults with cancer, regardless of disease stage or treatment nature, in all health
care provision contexts.
Introduction: In the challenging context of oncology care, it becomes imperative to adopt a humanized care
paradigm. This paradigm should foster a relationship of respect and compassion between health professionals and
people, and its interventions should be sensitive to their values, culture, and human dignity.
Inclusion criteria: Studies involving health professionals’ attitudes and behaviors focused on promoting humanization
of the health care provided to people with oncological diseases will be considered for this review.
Methods: This review will follow the JBI methodology for scoping reviews. Publications will be identified via
MEDLINE Complete, CINAHL Complete, MedicLatina, Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection, Scopus,
and Web of Science. Additionally, backward and forward citation searches will be conducted, as will a thorough
investigation of the gray literature. The studies identified will be screened by 2 independent reviewers based on their
title and abstract, and then reviewed at the full-text level. The data will be extracted using a tool developed by the
authors. The results will be summarized and presented in tables accompanied by a narrative summary.
