DOI: 10.31508/1676-3793202415i
Abstract
Objective
To map scientific evidence on the technological tools that have been used in knowledge translation for the education of professionals in the context of child health.
Methods
This is a scoping review. The JBI Manual for Evidence Synthesis recommendations were followed. Primary studies, with no time restrictions, in Portuguese, English, and Spanish were included. The search was conducted across eight databases up to November 2022. Rayyan® QCRI software was used for the screening process. Data analysis occurred in three stages: data extraction, thematic categorization, and synthesis.
Results
The sample included 14 studies. Canada stood out as the largest publisher of studies in this area. Most of the technologies created were soft-hard and hard, with video being the most produced technology.
Conclusion
The video stood out as the primary technology used in the education of healthcare professionals in pediatric settings. We can see the importance of educational technologies in health as promoters of knowledge translation and facilitators in the process of continuing education for healthcare professionals who work in child healthcare.
