Résumé
Digital transformation in healthcare impacts curricula preparation and work readiness of future health professionals. Informatics capabilities are essential practice attributes. Therefore, measurement of these competencies is important as students transition from education to practice. This rapid review, conducted according to Cochrane and World Health Organization guidelines, examined validity and reliability measurements of existing instruments used to self-assess nursing informatics competencies. MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, and PubMed databases were searched. Empirical studies with the primary aim of measuring informatics competencies reporting psychometric assessment were included. Methodological quality appraisal involved predetermined criteria based on COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments taxonomy. Data extraction and critical appraisal of six studies from four countries identified five instruments. Study characteristics, constructs measured, population, instrument type, and psychometric properties of interest were examined. There were some similarities and differences with instrumentation. Two important measurement properties, content validity and reliability, were underreported. Gaps in key measurement properties were identified, which require further research. Selection of a practical evaluative instrument to implement should also consider the constructs measured, and practicality and feasibility of the instrument for its suitability in different settings. A larger investigation comparing more informatics competency assessment instruments is necessary for an exhaustive analysis.
