Two independent reviewers will perform screening, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment through the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Assessment Checklist. For the quality of evidence, the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) Analysis will be used.Results:The results of this review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.Conclusions:This scoping review will provide evidence of how health education on MBC is being addressed in health systems.
