Abstract

The Omaha System is a popular and standard term used in community health. This scoping review aimed to update the research types and identify new usage trends for the Omaha System through articles published between 2012 and 2019. The bibliography databases PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, PsycInfo, Ovid, and ICHUSHI and the Omaha System's Web site were used to search for publications. Research articles published between 2012 and 2019 that included "Omaha System" in the title or abstract and were written in English or Japanese were included in this review. After excluding duplicate articles, 305 articles were screened and 82 were included in our analysis. There was a median of 10.3 articles per year. The percentages for each type of use of the Omaha System to "analyze client problem," "analyze clinical process," "analyze client outcomes," and "advanced classification research" were 18.3%, 12.2%, 23.2%, and 4.9%, respectively. The reclassification of the type "others" (41.5%) included "use the Omaha System data for assessment for other than clients," "use the Omaha System data as structured data," "encode by the Omaha System code," "adopt the OS framework," "clinical information system," and "literature review." This newly reclassified category will help capture future research trends using the Omaha System.
