Use of Telenursing in the conservative treatment of patients with chronic renal insufficiency: scoping review.

OBJECTIVE

to map the evidence of the use of telenursing in adherence to treatment and promotion of self-care in patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing conservative treatment.

METHOD

scoping review study, with selection of documents indexed in eight databases and two catalogs of theses and dissertations. Additionally, the reference lists of selected studies were consulted. Selection and analysis of studies were carried out using Rayyan software through double, independent and blind investigation.

RESULTS

56 eligible publications were found and ten were selected to compose the study. The following stand out among telenursing interventions: cell phone applications, websites, digital platform, telephone support and teleconferencing.

CONCLUSION

it was evident that the use of Telehealth by Nursing is relevant to the health sector, but still little explored in national and international literature, representing a gap in knowledge to be filled in future research. Studies have shown that its implementation helps and supports healthcare professionals, providing inferences and guidance for quick, safe and effective assistance, even remotely. Telenursing presents itself as a strategy capable of promoting adherence to treatment and self-care in patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing conservative treatment.
