The selection of studies, data extraction and synthesis will occur on the basis of the following inclusion criteria: Participants (leaders and health professionals), Concept (strategies for improving the safety climate) and Context (operating room) framework. This scoping review considers studies that address improvement strategies employed to strengthen the safety climate within the operating room. The review encompasses all studies published from 2009 to the present. The results will be presented in a narrative format with tables or diagrams. No ethics committee approval is required for this study as it does not involve human participants. The results of the study will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, presentations at scientific congresses and targeted knowledge-sharing sessions with relevant stakeholders.
