Healthcare professionals knowledge, attitude, practices, and perspectives providing care to Muslims in Western countries who fast during Ramadan: a scoping review.

The practice of fasting during the month of Ramadan is an obligation for healthy Muslims and involves abstaining from food and drinks from dawn to dusk for 29-30 consecutive days annually. With changes in dietary and lifestyle patterns, healthcare professionals (HCPs) play a significant role in supporting Muslims health during Ramadan. In this scoping review, we employed a systematic approach to map existing literature on HCPs' knowledge, attitude, practices, and perspectives working with Muslims who fast during Ramadan in Western countries.
