EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES USED TO TEACH SELF-MANAGEMENT AFTER HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION: A SCOPING REVIEW

Abstract

Objective: to map the scientific evidence on the educational technologies used to teach self-management in hematopoietic stem cell post-transplantation. Method: a scoping review, based on JBI recommendations. The searches took place between January and February 2022, in databases and repositories of dissertations and theses. The PCC strategy was used, namely: P (Population) – patients (patient participation); C (Concept) – educational technologies and self-management (instructional technology, self-management); and C (Context) – post hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (bone marrow transplantation). Studies that discussed the educational technologies used to teach self-management after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, available in full electronically, were included. Editorials, letters to the editor and opinion articles were excluded. Duplicate studies were considered only once. The data are presented in figures and chart format. Results: sixteen studies were selected to compose the final sample, most of which showed that the most used educational technologies in the context of hospital discharge after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are websites, software, movies, online videos or not, care plans, posters, books and booklets aimed at teaching. Conclusion: the use of educational technologies in teaching and patient health education is a reality present in services at any level of health care. The highlight of the approach to this topic is anchored in how these technologies are used and whether they are properly defined for each patient, according to the results of this study.
