Across the Arctic, patients’ interactions with the 21 22 42 healthcare system are colored by challenges of access, historical inequities, and social 23 24 43 determinants. Though it is well understood that these challenges affect care outcomes, 25 44 prior research across the Arctic has explored patient experiences only inconsistently, with 26 27 45 isolated research efforts that address various components of the care experience. The aim 28 29 46 of this scoping review was to identify and describe peer-reviewed literature on patient 30 47 experience studies conducted within the circumpolar region. Our objective was to 31 32 48 determine the extent, range and nature of studies conducted, and to summarize and 33 34 49 disseminate findings relevant to patient experiences. 35 36 50 Design: In an international partnership between Danish/Greenlandic, Canadian, and 37 http://bmjopen.bmj.com/ 38 51 American research teams, a scoping review of published research exploring patient 39 40 52 experiences in circumpolar regions was undertaken. 41 42 53 Results: Of the 2,824 articles initially found through systematic searches in seven 43 44 54 databases, 96 articles were included for data extraction. Findings from the review 45 55 included unique features related to Indigenous values, rural and remote health, climate on October 1, 2021 by guest.

These findings may be used to guide future studies 52 53 59 of patient experiences. These findings could be complimented by consensus and 54 60 participatory approaches that would build on Indigenous values present in circumpolar 55 56 61 nations, and further inform how we understand patient experiences. These findings can 57 58 62 be used to inform health system improvement and guide health policy decisions that will 59 60 2 For peer review only - http://bmjopen.bmj.com/site/about/guidelines.xhtml BMJ Open Page 4 of 35 1 2 3 63 respond to patient needs in the circumpolar context and other nations who share common 4 BMJ Open: first published as 10.1136/bmjopen-2020-042973 on 5 October 2020.
