Abstract: Polytrauma (PT) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, it is unknown if PT teaching is taught or adequately included in undergraduate medical curricula. We conducted this scoping review to explore the literature on undergraduate PT training. Using Arksey and O'Malley's five stage framework, a scoping review was conducted. Nine medical and educational databases, including PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and EMBASE were searched using keywords identified by the authors. Eligible studies were limited to the English language, with no set limitations on the year of publication. Studies reporting on PT teaching in undergraduate medical curricula were included. Nine studies were included. The articles were sub-categorised into three themes: current teaching of PT in medical curricula, trauma management courses and simulation-based trauma education. Four out of five studies on PT teaching in the curriculum were rated as inadequate by current or past students; on the other hand, three out of four trauma management/simulation courses were evaluated and all three were rated positively by students. Three trauma management courses compared students pre- and post-course scores on a written or practical test and reported significant improvement in post-course scores. There is a relative paucity of literature on undergraduate PT training. There is a need for more research to explore how to deliver effective PT teaching to medical students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
