Abstrakt: | Introduction: Continuous technological progress and the constantly expanding accessibility of the web have provided new opportunities for the development and implementation of web-based interventions in pediatric oncology nursing. Aim: This study aimed to investigate web-based interventions in pediatric oncology nursing. Methods: This is a systematic review of the literature from 2021 to 2023. Research articles were retrieved from PubMed and Scopus using the PRISMA method. The study includes 15 articles with quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods studies of children and/or adolescents with cancer and/or their parents/carers and/or health professionals. Results: Results showed that legacy-building interventions, parent education interventions, symptom reporting interventions, counseling interventions, interventions to improve treatment compliance, virtual reality interventions, parent information interventions, and interventions to improve the health-related quality of life of parents of children with cancer, based eHealth and mHealth, showed positive effects on improving the treatment and care of children with cancer. The eHealth literacy and use of technology devices significantly influenced attitudes and confidence in higher quality eHealth and mHealth applications. Conclusions: Web-based interventions in pediatric oncology nursing, based on the available evidence, seem to be useful and acceptable for monitoring complications and may have an important role in relieving and preventing the psychological consequences of children undergoing treatment and improving their quality of life. However, further studies are needed to establish their effectiveness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
